A8-7600 vs Core i7-4810MQ specs and performance

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Core i7-4810MQ is faster than the A8-7600. Despite this, the A8-7600 has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

When comparing core counts for these CPUs, we notice that the Core i7-4810MQ has significantly more cores with 3 cores compared to the A8-7600 that has 2 cores. It also has more threads than the A8-7600. With our hardware info, we find that the A8-7600 has a slightly higher clock speed than the Core i7-4810MQ. Furthermore, both these CPUs have identical turbo speeds. The Core i7-4810MQ 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. The cache sizes of these CPUs are different. Indeed, the A8-7600 has significantly more L2 cache than the Core i7-4810MQ

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 A8-7600 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
