Intel Core i3-2350M vs AMD PRO A10-8730B

Core i3-2350M vs PRO A10-8730B benchmarks

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Core i3-2350M performs better than the PRO A10-8730B. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the PRO A10-8730B in all gaming tests too.

In terms of the number of cores of each of these CPUs, the PRO A10-8730B has significantly more cores than the Core i3-2350M. Indeed, the PRO A10-8730B has 4 cores compared to 2 cores found in the Core i3-2350M. But they both have the same number of threads. Our comparison shows that the PRO A10-8730B has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i3-2350M.

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 i3-2350M has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
