Differences

Reasons to consider the AMD FX-8350

  • CPU is newer: launch date 2 year(s) 6 month(s) later
  • Processor is unlocked, an unlocked multiplier allows for easier overclocking
  • 2 more cores, run more applications at once: 8 vs 6
  • Around 62% higher clock speed: 4.2 GHz vs 2.6 GHz
  • A newer manufacturing process allows for a more powerful, yet cooler running processor: 32 nm SOI vs 45 nm
  • 2.7x more L2 cache, more data can be stored in the L2 cache for quick access later
  • Around 33% more L3 cache; more data can be stored in the L3 cache for quick access later
  • Around 29% better performance in PassMark - Single thread mark: 1581 vs 1226
  • 2x better performance in PassMark - CPU mark: 6065 vs 3000
  • Around 69% better performance in CompuBench 1.5 Desktop - Face Detection (mPixels/s): 9.886 vs 5.836
  • Around 15% better performance in CompuBench 1.5 Desktop - Ocean Surface Simulation (Frames/s): 21.912 vs 19.107
  • Around 9% better performance in CompuBench 1.5 Desktop - T-Rex (Frames/s): 0.424 vs 0.388
