A10-7800 vs Core i7-6498DU specs and performance

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the A10-7800 is faster than the Core i7-6498DU. Despite this, the Core i7-6498DU has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

Our spec comparison shows that they have an identical amount of cores and the same number of threads. Our comparison shows that the A10-7800 has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i7-6498DU. In terms of cache, the A10-7800 has significantly more L2 cache when compared to the Core i7-6498DU

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 A10-7800 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
