It is part of AMD's FX lineup, which is based on the Bristol Ridge microarchitecture. The FX-9830P is compatible with AMD Socket FP4 motherboards and is fabricated on GlobalFoundries's 28 nm manufacturing process. It features the Radeon R7 8CU integrated graphics solution.
Memory and Cache
The FX-9830P supports DDR4 memory and features a dual-channel memory controller, allowing it to utilize 2 memory modules simultaneously. In terms of cache, the FX-9830P has multiple levels of cache. Its L1 cache, which is the smallest and fastest, is 320 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 FX-9830P features 4 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 3.0 GHz, and it can boost up to 3.7 GHz 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 FX-9830P includes an integrated graphics solution called Radeon R7 8CU. 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 FX-9830P has the 517th best 3DMark 11 Performance Physics score among the 720 benchmarked CPUs in our database. It achieves 8.33% of the performance of the best benchmarked CPU, the AMD Ryzen 9 7950X3D.
About the Intel Core i3-6100U CPU
The Intel Core i3-6100U is a 2-core (4-thread) processor built for the mobile CPU market. The i3-6100U is compatible with FCBGA1356 motherboards and is fabricated on a 14 nm manufacturing process. It features the Intel HD Graphics 520 integrated graphics solution.
Memory and Cache
In terms of cache, the Core i3-6100U has multiple levels of cache. Its L1 cache, which is the smallest and fastest, is 128 KB in size, providing rapid access to crucial instructions. Its L2 cache, at 512 KB, is larger but slower than the L1. Its L3 cache, a shared resource among the CPU's cores, has a capacity of 3 MB.
Cores and Clock Speeds
The Core i3-6100U 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 2300.0 MHz. Higher clock speeds result in higher performance for the same microarchitecture.
