Athlon X4 760K vs FX-870K comparison
Our benchmark analysis concludes that the FX-870K performs better than the Athlon X4 760K. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Athlon X4 760K 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 Athlon X4 760K has a slightly higher clock speed than the FX-870K. The cache sizes of these CPUs are different. Indeed, the Athlon X4 760K has significantly more L2 cache than the FX-870K
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 Athlon X4 760K has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
