A10-5750M vs Core i7 Q 720 specs and performance

In our benchmarks, the Core i7 Q 720 beats the A10-5750M in overall performance. Despite this, the A10-5750M has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

When comparing these CPUs we notice that they have the same number of cores but the Core i7 Q 720 has more threads. Our comparison shows that the A10-5750M has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the Core i7 Q 720.

Most CPUs have more threads than cores. This technology, colloquially called hyperthreading, improves performance by splitting a core into multiple virtual ones. This provides more efficient utilisation of a core. For instance, the A10-5750M has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
