FX-4300 vs Core i7-8500Y comparison
Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Core i7-8500Y performs better than the FX-4300. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the FX-4300 in all gaming tests too.
When comparing these CPUs we notice that they have the same number of cores and the same number of threads. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the FX-4300 has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the Core i7-8500Y. The Core i7-8500Y outputs less heat than FX-4300 thanks to a 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 FX-4300 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
