FX-8320 vs Core i7-1065G7 specs and performance

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the FX-8320 is faster than the Core i7-1065G7. Despite this, the Core i7-1065G7 has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

When comparing these CPUs we notice that they have the same number of cores and the same number of threads. With our hardware info, we find that the FX-8320 has a significantly higher clock speed than the Core i7-1065G7. The Core i7-1065G7 outputs less heat than FX-8320 thanks to a significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption. The cache sizes of these CPUs are different. Indeed, the FX-8320 has significantly more L2 cache than the Core i7-1065G7. However, both these chips have the same amount of L3 cache.

Modern CPUs generally have more logical cores than physical cores, this means that each core is split into multiple virtual cores, improving efficiency for parallel workloads. Indeed, the FX-8320 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
