A8-6500 vs Core i7-8500Y comparison
According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the A8-6500 is faster than the Core i7-8500Y. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i7-8500Y in all gaming tests too.
Our spec comparison shows that they have an identical amount of cores and the same number of threads. With our hardware info, we find that the A8-6500 has a significantly higher clock speed than the Core i7-8500Y. Despite this, the Core i7-8500Y has a slightly higher turbo speed. The Core i7-8500Y outputs less heat than A8-6500 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 A8-6500 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
