Intel Core i7 4700MQ vs AMD A10 5750M

Released June, 2013

Reasons to buy the Intel Core i7 4700MQ

	Is hyperthreaded Yes		Newer manufacturing process 22 nms
	Much better turbo clock speed 1,150 MHz		More threads 8

Released March, 2013

Reasons to buy the AMD A10 5750M

	Much more l2 cache 4 MB		Much more l2 cache per core 1 MB/core
	Lower typical power consumption 28.44W		Higher GPU clock speed 533 MHz

It's a little bizarre that we saw Kabini and Temash first, since those chips marry AMD's updated Jaguar low-power CPU architecture with their current generation GCN GPU architecture; Richland is essentially old technology that's seen a healthy refinement.

amd much better due to its price efficiency....

There is no program that does it properly, so you need to do it directly with PCI config space writes. I use BAR-EDIT on the richland laptop I have access to. The way the method works is you just limit the number of P-states the processor is allowed to use. PScheck can do this, but it neglects changing what P-state the CPU goes into C6 in, which is set by default to a state that is no longer available, thus breaking the top turbo bin. B0D24F3xDC clear bits 9 and 10 (in english: on bus 0, device 24, function 3, offset 0xDC, make bits 9 and 10 equal to 0) To then fix top turbo: B0D24F3xA8 clear bits 30 and 31 These changes net a consistent 9-12% raw performance gain in multithreaded programs. In games the difference is actually more noticeable since without this fix the CPU will randomly drop as low as 1.6ghz for me, which is just flat out dumb and causes major stutter.

how do you lock the APU at 3.2ghz? Did i miss some settings?

Guest (01:22 PM, April 22, 2014)

The A10 5750m only works yet at 2.75 GHz Max. you can lock it at 3.2 GHz and you will feel a big performance boost. When AMD unlocks the A10 5750m to lock it at 3.5 GHz it will be much better than an I5 3230m ;) AMD APU´s are not bad im happy with my MSI GX60 BF4 with mantle is great i play on ultra settings. Avg 53 FPS Max. 106 Min. 28 when you play on high you get a crazy boost. : Min. 37 Avg. 72 Max 132. on mid : Min. 45 Avg. 89 Max. 143 So who says GX60 is bad ?!
