AMD A10-8700P vs Intel Core i3-2370M

A10-8700P vs Core i3-2370M benchmarks

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the A10-8700P is faster than the Core i3-2370M. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i3-2370M in all gaming tests too.

Our spec comparison shows that they have an identical amount of cores and the same number of threads. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Core i3-2370M has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the A10-8700P. Both these chips have an identical TDP (Thermal Design Power). 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 A10-8700P has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
