A10-8700P vs Pentium 6405U comparison

In our benchmarks, the A10-8700P beats the Pentium 6405U in overall performance. Despite this, the Pentium 6405U has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

Info from our database shows that they both have the same core count and the same number of threads. The Pentium 6405U outputs less heat than A10-8700P 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 A10-8700P has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
