About the AMD C-70 CPU

The AMD C-70 is a 2-core (2-thread) processor built for the mobile CPU market. It launched in Q3 2012. It is part of AMD's C lineup, which is based on the Ontario microarchitecture. The C-70 is compatible with AMD Socket FT1 motherboards and is fabricated on a 40 nm manufacturing process. It features the Radeon HD 6290 integrated graphics solution.

Memory and Cache

The C-70 supports DDR3 memory and features a single-channel memory controller, allowing it to utilize 1 memory modules simultaneously. In terms of cache, the C-70 has multiple levels of cache. Its L1 cache, which is the smallest and fastest, is 64 KB in size, providing rapid access to crucial instructions. Its L2 cache, at 512 KB, is larger but slower than the L1.

Cores and Clock Speeds

The C-70 features 2 total cores which can process 2 threads simultaneously. The multi-threading capability allows the CPU to execute multiple computational tasks in parallel. The base clock speed of the CPU is 1000.0 MHz, and it can boost up to 1333.0 MHz under heavy workloads. Higher clock speeds result in better performance for the same microarchitecture. The multiplier is locked, making it incapable of overclocking for pushing performance further.

Integrated Graphics

The C-70 includes an integrated graphics solution called Radeon HD 6290. This graphics processor is directly integrated into the CPU and is not as powerful as a dedicated graphics card. While integrated graphics can handle basic tasks like web browsing and office applications, it is not suitable for more demanding activities such as gaming or video editing, where a dedicated graphics card offers superior performance.

Benchmark Performance

The C-70 has the 719th best 3DMark 11 Performance Physics score among the 721 benchmarked CPUs in our database. It achieves 1.40% of the performance of the best benchmarked CPU, the AMD Ryzen 9 7950X3D.

About the Intel Core M-5Y10a CPU

The Intel Core M-5Y10a is a 2-core (4-thread) processor built for the mobile CPU market. It launched in Q3 2014. It is part of Intel's Core M lineup, which is based on the Broadwell-Y microarchitecture. The M-5Y10a is compatible with Intel BGA 1234 motherboards and is fabricated on Intel's 14 nm manufacturing process. It features the Intel HD 5300 integrated graphics solution.

Memory and Cache

The Core M-5Y10a supports DDR4 memory. In terms of cache, the Core M-5Y10a has multiple levels of cache. Its L1 cache, which is the smallest and fastest, is 64 KB in size, providing rapid access to crucial instructions. Its L2 cache, at 256 KB, is larger but slower than the L1. Its L3 cache, a shared resource among the CPU's cores, has a capacity of 4 MB.

Cores and Clock Speeds

The Core M-5Y10a features 2 total cores which can process 4 threads simultaneously. The multi-threading capability allows the CPU to execute multiple computational tasks in parallel. The base clock speed of the CPU is 800.0 MHz, and it can boost up to 2000.0 MHz under heavy workloads. Higher clock speeds result in better performance for the same microarchitecture. The multiplier is locked, making it incapable of overclocking for pushing performance further.

Integrated Graphics

The Core M-5Y10a includes an integrated graphics solution called Intel HD 5300. This graphics processor is directly integrated into the CPU and is not as powerful as a dedicated graphics card. While integrated graphics can handle basic tasks like web browsing and office applications, it is not suitable for more demanding activities such as gaming or video editing, where a dedicated graphics card offers superior performance.

Benchmark Performance

The Core M-5Y10a has the 557th best 3DMark 11 Performance Physics score among the 721 benchmarked CPUs in our database. It achieves 7.04% of the performance of the best benchmarked CPU, the AMD Ryzen 9 7950X3D.
