Differences

Reasons to consider the AMD FX-6200

CPU is newer: launch date 1 year(s) 5 month(s) later
Processor is unlocked, an unlocked multiplier allows for easier overclocking
5 more cores, run more applications at once: 6 vs 1
Around 46% higher clock speed: 4.1 GHz vs 2.8 GHz
A newer manufacturing process allows for a more powerful, yet cooler running processor: 32 nm SOI vs 45 nm
2.3x more L1 cache, more data can be stored in the L1 cache for quick access later
6x more L2 cache, more data can be stored in the L2 cache for quick access later
Around 36% better performance in PassMark - Single thread mark: 1404 vs 1033
7.7x better performance in PassMark - CPU mark: 4092 vs 532
Around 58% better performance in Geekbench 4 - Single Core: 513 vs 325
6.1x better performance in Geekbench 4 - Multi-Core: 1934 vs 317
