A6-7310 vs Core 2 Duo E8200 benchmarks

In our benchmarks, the A6-7310 beats the Core 2 Duo E8200 in overall performance. Despite this, the Core 2 Duo E8200 has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

In terms of the number of cores of each of these CPUs, the A6-7310 has significantly more cores than the Core 2 Duo E8200. Indeed, the A6-7310 has 4 cores compared to 2 cores found in the Core 2 Duo E8200. It also has more threads than the Core 2 Duo E8200. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Core 2 Duo E8200 has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the A6-7310. A A6-7310 CPU outputs less heat than a Core 2 Duo E8200 CPU because of its significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption. The cache sizes of these CPUs are different. Indeed, the Core 2 Duo E8200 has significantly more L2 cache than the A6-7310

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 A6-7310 has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
