Intel Core i7-7660U vs AMD A6-3670

Core i7-7660U vs A6-3670 comparison

In our benchmarks, the Core i7-7660U beats the A6-3670 in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the A6-3670 in all gaming tests too.

In terms of the number of cores of each of these CPUs, the A6-3670 has significantly more cores than the Core i7-7660U. Indeed, the A6-3670 has 4 cores compared to 2 cores found in the Core i7-7660U. But they both have the same number of threads. A Core i7-7660U 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.

The more cores a CPU has, the better the overall performance will be in parallel workloads such as multitasking. Many CPUs have more threads than cores, this means that each physical core is split into multiple logical cores, making them more efficient. Indeed, the Core i7-7660U has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
