Core i3-10300 vs A10-6700 benchmarks

In our benchmarks, the Core i3-10300 beats the A10-6700 in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the A10-6700 in all gaming tests too.

Our spec comparison shows that they have an identical amount of cores but the Core i3-10300 has more threads. According to our data, the Core i3-10300 and A10-6700 have the same clock speed. Despite this, the Core i3-10300 has a slightly higher turbo speed. Both these chips have an identical TDP (Thermal Design Power). 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 A10-6700 has significantly more L2 cache than the Core i3-10300

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 Core i3-10300 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
