A10-7800 vs Core i7-4558U benchmarks

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the A10-7800 is faster than the Core i7-4558U. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i7-4558U in all gaming tests too.

Info from our database shows that they both have the same core count and the same number of threads. Our comparison shows that the A10-7800 has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i7-4558U. Also, the A10-7800 has a slightly higher turbo speed. The Core i7-4558U outputs less heat than A10-7800 thanks to a significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption.

The more cores a CPU has, the better the overall performance will be in parallel workloads such as multitasking. Many CPUs have more threads than cores, this means that each physical core is split into multiple logical cores, making them more efficient. Indeed, the A10-7800 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
