A10-6700 vs Pentium G4520 specs and performance

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Pentium G4520 performs better than the A10-6700. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the A10-6700 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 Pentium G4520 has 2 cores. It also has more threads than the Pentium G4520. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the A10-6700 has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Pentium G4520. The Pentium G4520 outputs less heat than A10-6700 thanks to a slightly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption. The info from our database shows that the A10-6700 has more L2 cache than the Pentium G4520

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 A10-6700 has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
