The comparison between the Samsung Exynos 5 Octa and the Qualcomm Snapdragon 600 is a clear representation that sometimes more cores doesn’t necessarily equal better quality.
True, the Exynos 5 has twice as many cores as the Snapdragon 600- eight and four respctively- but to compensate for that, the Snapdragon has about 60% higher clock speed, which compensates for the lack of cores, considering these processors are used in mobile devices like smartphones, tablets, etc. Another thing that the Snapdragon has above the Exynos 5 is that it offers more than twice the amount of fps as shown by the GLBenchmark 2.5 egypt classic (offscreen)- approximately 88 fps to the 43 of the Exynos.
More cores doesn’t always equal better CPU performance, as this case clearly shows.
