Core i3-7020U vs A6-3670 specs and performance
In our benchmarks, the A6-3670 beats the Core i3-7020U in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i3-7020U in all gaming tests too.
When comparing core counts for these CPUs, we notice that the A6-3670 has significantly more cores with 4 cores compared to the Core i3-7020U that has 2 cores. But they both have the same number of threads. A Core i3-7020U CPU outputs less heat than a A6-3670 CPU because of its significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption.
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 i3-7020U has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
