General info

The base and maximum clock speed of the CPU AMD A6-3600, number of processing cores and threads.

CPU Cores and Base Frequency

The general performance of a CPU can easily be determined based on the number of its cores and the thread count, as well as the base frequency and Turbo frequency. The more GHz and cores a CPU has, the better. Please note that high technical specs require using a powerful cooling system and a quality chipset (check VRM on the motherboard).

Frequency: 2.10 GHz   CPU Cores: 4
Turbo (1 Core): 2.40 GHz   Hyperthreading: No
Overclocking: Yes   Turbo (4 Cores): 2.40 GHz

Internal Graphics

Some manufacturers complement their CPUs with graphic chips, such a solution being especially popular in laptops. The higher the clock frequency of a GPU is and the bigger its memory, the better.
