AMD A4-6210 with Radeon R3 Graphics vs AMD A6-5350M with Radeon HD 8450G: Comparison
A4-6210 with Radeon R3 Graphics vs A6-5350M with Radeon HD 8450G total cores compared
These two are close on paper, and total cores is the only measure that separates them at all: A4-6210 with Radeon R3 Graphics 4 against A6-5350M with Radeon HD 8450G 2. Add memory channels to that, 1 on the A4-6210 with Radeon R3 Graphics versus 2 on the A6-5350M with Radeon HD 8450G, and the pattern holds. They differ on socket too, FT3b on the A4-6210 with Radeon R3 Graphics versus FS1r2 on the A6-5350M with Radeon HD 8450G. There is a split on igpu as well, AMD Radeon R3 on the A4-6210 with Radeon R3 Graphics versus AMD Radeon HD 8450G on the A6-5350M with Radeon HD 8450G. Base power is not the same on both, 15 W on the A4-6210 with Radeon R3 Graphics versus 35 W on the A6-5350M with Radeon HD 8450G.
Which should you buy, A4-6210 with Radeon R3 Graphics or A6-5350M with Radeon HD 8450G?
Buy the A4-6210 with Radeon R3 Graphics for A-Series platform upgrades or repairs and budget legacy builds, though it is the wrong buy for modern gaming or productivity workloads and new builds. The A6-5350M with Radeon HD 8450G is the one to take for A-Series platform upgrades or repairs and budget legacy builds, though it is not built for modern gaming or productivity workloads and new builds.
Where the two are identical
Everything else lines up. Efficiency cores, integrated graphics, socket status, product line and form factor read the same on both, so those are not worth weighing. They match on 5 further specifications as well.
