A10-6800K vs Core i7-2630QM comparison
Our benchmark analysis concludes that the A10-6800K performs better than the Core i7-2630QM. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i7-2630QM in all gaming tests too.
When comparing core counts for these CPUs, we notice that the Core i7-2630QM has significantly more cores with 4 cores compared to the A10-6800K that has 2 cores. It also has more threads than the A10-6800K. With our hardware info, we find that the A10-6800K has a significantly higher clock speed than the Core i7-2630QM. Also, the A10-6800K has a significantly higher turbo speed. The Core i7-2630QM outputs less heat than A10-6800K thanks to a significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption.
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. Indeed, the A10-6800K has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
