About the AMD E-240 CPU

The AMD E-240 is an end-of-life 1-core (1-thread) processor built for the mobile CPU market. It launched in Q1 2011. It is part of AMD's E lineup, which is based on the Zacate microarchitecture. The E-240 is compatible with AMD Socket FT1 motherboards and is fabricated on a 40 nm manufacturing process. It features the Radeon HD 6310 integrated graphics solution.

Memory and Cache

The E-240 supports DDR3 memory and features a single-channel memory controller, allowing it to utilize 1 memory modules simultaneously. In terms of cache, the E-240 has multiple levels of cache. Its L1 cache, which is the smallest and fastest, is 64 KB in size, providing rapid access to crucial instructions. Its L2 cache, at 512 KB, is larger but slower than the L1.

Cores and Clock Speeds

The E-240 is a single-core and single-threaded CPU, making it not capable of processing multiple computational tasks in parallel. The base clock speed of the CPU is 1500.0 MHz. Higher clock speeds result in higher performance for the same microarchitecture. The multiplier is locked, making it incapable of overclocking for pushing performance further.

Integrated Graphics

The E-240 includes an integrated graphics solution called Radeon HD 6310. This graphics processor is directly integrated into the CPU and is not as powerful as a dedicated graphics card. While integrated graphics can handle basic tasks like web browsing and office applications, it is not suitable for more demanding activities such as gaming or video editing, where a dedicated graphics card offers superior performance.

Benchmark Performance

The E-240 has the 721st best 3DMark 11 Performance Physics score among the 721 benchmarked CPUs in our database. It achieves 0.73% of the performance of the best benchmarked CPU, the AMD Ryzen 9 7950X3D.

About the AMD PRO A8-9600B CPU

The AMD PRO A8-9600B is a 4-core (4-thread) processor built for the mobile CPU market. The PRO A8-9600B is compatible with BGA (FP4) motherboards and is fabricated on a 28 nm manufacturing process. It features the Radeon R5 Series integrated graphics solution.

Memory and Cache

In terms of cache, the PRO A8-9600B has a L2 cache of 2 MB in size which provides fast access to instructions and data.

Cores and Clock Speeds

The PRO A8-9600B features 4 total cores which can process 4 threads simultaneously. The multi-threading capability allows the CPU to execute multiple computational tasks in parallel. The base clock speed of the CPU is 2400.0 MHz, and it can boost up to 3300.0 MHz under heavy workloads. Higher clock speeds result in better performance for the same microarchitecture.

Integrated Graphics

The PRO A8-9600B includes an integrated graphics solution called Radeon R5 Series. This graphics processor is directly integrated into the CPU and is not as powerful as a dedicated graphics card. While integrated graphics can handle basic tasks like web browsing and office applications, it is not suitable for more demanding activities such as gaming or video editing, where a dedicated graphics card offers superior performance.

Benchmark Performance

The PRO A8-9600B has the 609th best 3DMark 11 Performance Physics score among the 721 benchmarked CPUs in our database. It achieves 5.63% of the performance of the best benchmarked CPU, the AMD Ryzen 9 7950X3D.
