A8-7600 vs Core i3-4330 benchmarks

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the A8-7600 is faster than the Core i3-4330. Despite this, the Core i3-4330 has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

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 Core i3-4330 has a slightly higher clock speed than the A8-7600. The Core i3-4330 outputs less heat than A8-7600 thanks to a slightly 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. Indeed, the A8-7600 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
