According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the FX-6300 is faster than the A10-7800. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the A10-7800 in all gaming tests too.

In terms of the number of cores of each of these CPUs, the FX-6300 has significantly more cores than the A10-7800. Indeed, the FX-6300 has 3 cores compared to 2 cores found in the A10-7800. It also has more threads than the A10-7800. In terms of clock speed, the FX-6300 and A10-7800 are identical in this regard. Despite this, the A10-7800 has a slightly higher turbo speed. The A10-7800 outputs less heat than FX-6300 thanks to a significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption. The info from our database shows that the FX-6300 has more L2 cache than the A10-7800

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-6300 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
