FX-8370 vs Core i7-5700HQ benchmarks
Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Core i7-5700HQ performs better than the FX-8370. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the FX-8370 in all gaming tests too.
Info from our database shows that they both have the same core count and the same number of threads. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the FX-8370 has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the Core i7-5700HQ. Also, the FX-8370 has a slightly higher turbo speed. The Core i7-5700HQ 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 i7-5700HQ. The FX-8370 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-8370 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
