A6-3670 vs Core i7-2630QM benchmarks

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Core i7-2630QM is faster than the A6-3670. Despite this, the A6-3670 has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

When comparing these CPUs we notice that they have the same number of cores but the Core i7-2630QM has more threads. The Core i7-2630QM outputs less heat than A6-3670 thanks to a significantly lower TDP. 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. For instance, the A6-3670 has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
