Core i7-8565U vs FX-8120 benchmarks
In our benchmarks, the FX-8120 beats the Core i7-8565U in overall performance. Despite this, the Core i7-8565U has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.
Our spec comparison shows that they have an identical amount of cores and the same number of threads. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the FX-8120 has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the Core i7-8565U. A Core i7-8565U CPU outputs less heat than a FX-8120 CPU because of its significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption. In terms of cache, the FX-8120 has significantly more L2 cache when compared to the Core i7-8565U. However, both these chips have the same amount of L3 cache.
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 i7-8565U has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
