AMD A10-7800
The A10-7800 is a 2 core CPU from AMD released in 2014. This chip has an average overall score with 1391 points in our CPU benchmark. Our gaming benchmark shows that this CPU is an average processor for gaming, with a score of 2666 points. As for multitasking and heavy workloads, the A10-7800 scores 1046 points and 1004 points respectively. Indeed, this is an average rating for very heavy workloads.
The A10-7800 has 2 cores and 4 threads. This CPU makes use of simultaneous multithreading technology to improve performance on parallel tasks. Each physical CPU core is divided into multiple logical processors. This AMD CPU has a clock speed of 3.5 GHz and a turbo speed of 3.9 GHz : a higher clock speed that can be reached when thermals and power delivery allow. This CPU has a locked multiplier, so you are not able to overclock it beyond this frequency.
As for memory, the A10-7800 makes use of DDR3 memory. The faster the memory, the better. Faster memory means that the CPU doesn't have to wait to get the data it needs. Furthermore, this chip can handle up to 2 channels of RAM, a multichannel memory architecture allows for higher data transfer between the CPU and the memory. However, to take advantage of this, you must have enough memory slots filled.
In terms of cache, the A10-7800 has 256 KiB of level 1 cache, 4 MiB of level 2 cache. This is a fast memory located close to the processor, which stores copies of frequently used data from main memory.
Power and thermals for the AMD A10-7800 CPU are a TDP (Thermal Design Power) of 65 watts. This measures the amount of heat the processor produces when running at full load. This isn't a measure of power consumption, but it's a good estimate.
