Amd fx 6300 vs intel core i5 3470 with geforce gtx 1060

We see again an interesting comparison of processors, this time between the old AMD FX 6300 and Intel Core i5 3470 to see which one has stood the test of time better. AMD FX 6300 vs Intel Core i5 3470 with GeForce GTX 1060.

AMD FX 6300 vs Intel Core i5 3470 in 2018

AMD FX 6300 is a six-core processor that is based on the Vishera architecture, the first evolution of Bulldozer, very focused on the multi-core but with a fairly modest power for each of them. Its rival is the Intel Core i5 3470 formed by four Ivy Bridge cores, much more powerful than the Vishera, so we have a rather interesting comparison given the peculiarities of each processor.

An advantage of the AMD FX 6300 is that it has been able to be overclocked up to 4.4 GHz, an important advantage compared to the Core i5 3470, which settles for a speed of 3.6 GHz in turbo mode due to the impossibility of being overclocked.

The AMD FX processors arrived in 2011 promising that they were an excellent option for the future due to their high number of cores, since they reached eight when their rival Intel kept all four cores on the domestic platform. Despite this, the Intel cores were much more powerful, to which it was added that the games did not take advantage of more than four, so that their processors dominated all the games. Will this have changed seven years later?

NJ Tech's AMD FX 6300 vs Intel Core i5 3470 tests make it very clear that the Core i5 3470 is much superior to the AMD FX 6300 despite having two fewer cores, and that the AMD processor has been overclocked and it takes out 800 MHz at the turbo frequency of the Intel processor. The GeForce GTX 1060 is a mid-range graphics card, if you had used a superior one like the GTX 1080 in AMD FX 6300 vs Intel Core i5 3470 the difference could have been even more bulky.

The AMD FX has failed to deliver on its promise to deliver better performance for the future, something AMD itself has also demonstrated by profoundly changing the concept with Ryzen and focusing much more on performance per core.
