Which CPUs are better?

This page is currently only available in English.

Which is better AMD FX-8350 or Intel Core i7-3820? — Habr Q&A

Because frequencies and all sorts of quantities mean absolutely nothing apart from architecture.

FX’s have weak cores, a fairly large part of the blocks are divided in pairs (in particular, FPUs). But what Intel called 4-core processors with 8 executable threads, fx’s have 8-core processors.

Tasks come into play next:
in games you need a little, but productive cores. fx can compete only with i5
If you need a lot of integer mathematics, fx’s are quite appropriate.

LGA2011 setup will be decently more expensive than AM3+. Prospects — theoretically still Ivy Bridge-E and to the landfill, but there is and will be a cloud of very expensive processors that can then be perfectly upgraded (for example, even from SB-E something like E5-2650, 2670, etc. — tr eight-core monster). The performance is higher than that of Vishera (corresponding to the price — everything is fair :)).

LGA1155 is only slightly more expensive than AM3+. Prospects — no (Haswell / Broadwell on LGA1150).

AM3+ is the most economical platform in this segment. The prospects are either gone, or one more generation, or two more generations. Now the FX-8350 is about the level of i5-3330 to i7-3770, but costs as much as i5-3470. FX-8320 is even better in terms of price / quality ratio. In 70% of games at the level of i5 or a little worse. In software, even modern, it’s about the same. In some applications, the i7-3770 is doing well (say, in 1% of applications or even less often). In a pure single-stream — trash.

FX-8350 versus i5-3570K consumes 2 times more power and 1. 5 times higher heat dissipation. For home, both are ok.

Look at tasks. If your tasks are mostly integer and are well parallelized, then AMD is good here. If they are poorly paralleled, then Intel has better performance per core.

I have an FX8120 — enough for everything I need.

Well, in addition to the frequency, etc. there is the concept of architecture, there is forecasting, for example.

If it’s completely on the fingers, then for example, if a processor with a frequency of 800 MHz per cycle executes 2 commands, and a processor at 1500 MHz only one, then the first one will be faster.

In fact, everything is noticeably more complicated and you just need to look at the tests and nothing else.

According to Passmark’s test results, AMD is still slightly more productive than AMD FX-8350 Intel Core i7-3820
And if you also compare the price, then Intel is “in flight”.

Are you checkered or should you go?
You need to look not at the numbers on the box (how many cores, etc.
