Intel Core i7-6560U vs AMD 3020e

Core i7-6560U vs 3020e benchmarks

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Core i7-6560U performs better than the 3020e. Despite this, the 3020e has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

Info from our database shows that they both have the same core count but the Core i7-6560U has more threads. Our comparison shows that the Core i7-6560U has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the 3020e. Also, the Core i7-6560U has a slightly higher turbo speed. The 3020e outputs less heat than Core i7-6560U thanks to a 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 i7-6560U has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
