A10-6700 vs FX-4300 benchmarks

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the A10-6700 performs better than the FX-4300. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the FX-4300 in all gaming tests too.

With info from our database, we find that the A10-6700 has significantly more cores with 4 cores whereas the FX-4300 has 2 cores. But they both have the same number of threads. Our comparison shows that the FX-4300 has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the A10-6700. A A10-6700 CPU outputs less heat than a FX-4300 CPU because of its significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption. The data shows that both these CPUs have same sized L2 caches

Modern CPUs generally have more logical cores than physical cores, this means that each core is split into multiple virtual cores, improving efficiency for parallel workloads. For instance, the A10-6700 has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
