AMD A10-7800 vs AMD A4-5300

Last updated:
The AMD A10-7800 (Kaveri, Steamroller), introduced in 2014, targeted mainstream desktops for daily tasks and light gaming.

The AMD A4-5300 (Kabini, Jaguar) for simple entry-level systems, suitable for basic applications.

Both AMD processors are manufactured using the 28 nm process. The AMD A10-7800 has 4 CPU cores, 4 MB L3 cache, PCIe 3.0, and 30 GB/s memory bandwidth. Its Steamroller architecture delivers significantly higher single-core performance and outperforms the AMD A4-5300, which has 2 CPU cores, 1 MB L3 cache, and 26 GB/s memory bandwidth, in multi-core tasks.

For gaming, the AMD A10-7800 clearly has the advantage. Its AMD Radeon R7 - 512 graphics unit significantly surpasses the AMD Radeon HD 7480D of the AMD A4-5300, supported by higher memory bandwidth. Specific TDP values are missing, but the AMD A10-7800 will consume more power due to higher performance.

Both are not available new; a price-performance evaluation without current used market prices is difficult. However, the AMD A10-7800 offers significantly more performance. The AMD A10-7800 offers superior CPU and graphics performance for general tasks and light gaming. The AMD A4-5300 is suitable for basic applications.

For most requirements, the AMD A10-7800 is the better choice.
