Differences

Reasons to consider the AMD C-50

  • CPU is newer: launch date 1 year(s) 2 month(s) later
  • A newer manufacturing process allows for a more powerful, yet cooler running processor: 40 nm vs 45 nm
  • Around 11% lower typical power consumption: 9 Watt vs 10 Watt
Launch date 9 November 2010 vs 1 September 2009
Manufacturing process technology 40 nm vs 45 nm
Thermal Design Power (TDP) 9 Watt vs 10 Watt

Reasons to consider the Intel Core 2 Duo SU7300

  • Around 30% higher clock speed: 1.3 GHz vs 1 GHz
  • 3x more L2 cache, more data can be stored in the L2 cache for quick access later
  • 2.1x better performance in Geekbench 4 - Single Core: 177 vs 85
  • Around 96% better performance in Geekbench 4 - Multi-Core: 309 vs 158
