FX-6100 vs Core i7-4810MQ benchmarks

In our benchmarks, the FX-6100 beats the Core i7-4810MQ in overall performance. Despite this, the Core i7-4810MQ has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

Our spec comparison shows that they have an identical amount of cores but the FX-6100 has more threads. Our comparison shows that the FX-6100 has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i7-4810MQ. The cache sizes of these CPUs are different. Indeed, the FX-6100 has significantly more L2 cache than the Core i7-4810MQ. The FX-6100 also has slightly more L3 cache.

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 FX-6100 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
