FX-8350 vs A10-6700 comparison

In our benchmarks, the FX-8350 beats the A10-6700 in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the A10-6700 in all gaming tests too.

Our spec comparison shows that they have an identical amount of cores but the FX-8350 has more threads. Our comparison shows that the FX-8350 has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the A10-6700. Despite this, the A10-6700 has a slightly higher turbo speed. The A10-6700 outputs less heat than FX-8350 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-8350 has significantly more L2 cache than the A10-6700

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-8350 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
