A10-8700P vs Pentium G3250 comparison

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Pentium G3250 is faster than the A10-8700P. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the A10-8700P in all gaming tests too.

Info from our database shows that they both have the same core count but the A10-8700P has more threads. Our comparison shows that the Pentium G3250 has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the A10-8700P. A A10-8700P CPU outputs less heat than a Pentium G3250 CPU because of its 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.
