About the AMD FX-8320 CPU
The AMD FX-8320 is an end-of-life 8-core (8-thread) processor built for the desktop CPU market. It launched in Q4 2012 with a suggested retail price of $169. It is part of AMD's FX lineup, which is based on the Vishera microarchitecture. The FX-8320 is compatible with AMD Socket AM3+ motherboards and is fabricated on GlobalFoundries's 32 nm manufacturing process.
Memory and Cache
The FX-8320 supports DDR3 memory and features a dual-channel memory controller, allowing it to utilize 2 memory modules simultaneously. In terms of cache, the FX-8320 has multiple levels of cache. Its L1 cache, which is the smallest and fastest, is 384 KB in size, providing rapid access to crucial instructions. Its L2 cache, at 8 MB, is larger but slower than the L1. Its L3 cache, a shared resource among the CPU's cores, has a capacity of 8 MB.
Cores and Clock Speeds
The FX-8320 features 8 total cores which can process 8 threads simultaneously. The multi-threading capability allows the CPU to execute multiple computational tasks in parallel. The base clock speed of the CPU is 3.5 GHz, and it can boost up to 4.0 GHz under heavy workloads. Higher clock speeds result in better performance for the same microarchitecture. The multiplier is unlocked, enabling overclocking for those seeking to push the CPU's performance further.
Integrated Graphics
The FX-8320 does not include an integrated graphics solution. A dedicated graphics card will be required if you require a monitor with your computer.
About the AMD Sempron 2650 CPU
The AMD Sempron 2650 is an end-of-life 2-core (2-thread) processor built for the desktop CPU market. It launched in Q2 2014 with a suggested retail price of $31. It is part of AMD's Sempron lineup, which is based on the Kabini microarchitecture. The Sempron 2650 is compatible with AMD Socket AM1 motherboards and is fabricated on GlobalFoundries's 28 nm manufacturing process. It features the Radeon R3 128CU integrated graphics solution.
Memory and Cache
The Sempron 2650 supports DDR3 memory and features a single-channel memory controller, allowing it to utilize 1 memory modules simultaneously. In terms of cache, the Sempron 2650 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 1 MB, is larger but slower than the L1.
Cores and Clock Speeds
The Sempron 2650 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 1450.0 MHz. Higher clock speeds result in higher performance for the same microarchitecture. The multiplier is locked, making it incapable of overclocking for pushing performance further.
Integrated Graphics
The Sempron 2650 includes an integrated graphics solution called Radeon R3 128CU. 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.
