FX-8370 vs Core i5-1035G1 comparison

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the FX-8370 is faster than the Core i5-1035G1. Despite this, the Core i5-1035G1 has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

Our spec comparison shows that they have an identical amount of cores and the same number of threads. With our hardware info, we find that the FX-8370 has a significantly higher clock speed than the Core i5-1035G1. Also, the FX-8370 has a slightly higher turbo speed. The Core i5-1035G1 outputs less heat than FX-8370 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-8370 has significantly more L2 cache than the Core i5-1035G1. The FX-8370 also has slightly more 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-8370 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
