A8-7650K vs Core i7-4810MQ benchmarks

In our benchmarks, the A8-7650K beats the Core i7-4810MQ in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i7-4810MQ in all gaming tests too.

With info from our database, we find that the Core i7-4810MQ has significantly more cores with 3 cores whereas the A8-7650K has 2 cores. It also has more threads than the A8-7650K. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the A8-7650K has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i7-4810MQ. In addition, both chips have the same turbo speed. The Core i7-4810MQ outputs less heat than A8-7650K 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 A8-7650K has significantly more L2 cache than the Core i7-4810MQ

Most CPUs have more threads than cores. This technology, colloquially called hyperthreading, improves performance by splitting a core into multiple virtual ones. This provides more efficient utilisation of a core. Indeed, the A8-7650K has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
