AMD A10-8700P vs Intel Core i5-4460T

A10-8700P vs Core i5-4460T comparison

In our benchmarks, the A10-8700P beats the Core i5-4460T in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i5-4460T in all gaming tests too.

In terms of the number of cores of each of these CPUs, the Core i5-4460T has significantly more cores than the A10-8700P. Indeed, the Core i5-4460T has 4 cores compared to 2 cores found in the A10-8700P. But they both have the same number of threads. Our comparison shows that the Core i5-4460T 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.

Modern CPUs generally have more logical cores than physical cores, this means that each core is split into multiple virtual cores, improving efficiency for parallel workloads. Indeed, the A10-8700P has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
