AMD A6-4455M vs E1-Series E1-1200

Mini Review

AMD A6-4455M advantages

Operating frequency of this processor is higher than the frequency of the AMD E1-Series E1-1200 microprocessor.
The A6-4455M has SSE4.1 and SSE4.2 instructions enabled.
The A6-4455M includes Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) technology, that accelerates AES encryption. The instructions are beneficial if you need to protect your disk or network data.
The A6-4455M incorporates AVX, F16C, FMA4 and XOP instructions. Even though these extensions are not widely used in programs yet, their support should improve in future applications.
The CPU has FMA3 instruction set extension enabled. This technology is only available on AMD processors, thus not many software vendors may support it in the future.
Power consumption of the CPU is lower.
