AMD E2-2000 vs Intel Core i7-10700

AMD E2-2000

The AMD E2-2000 (codename Zacate) is a dual core processor for small notebooks and netbooks. It offers a relatively powerful integrated graphics card and a single channel DDR3-1333 memory controller. Compared to the older E2-1800 offers only slightly higher CPU (50 MHz) and GPU (15 - 20 MHz) clock rates.

Inside the E2-2000 two Bobcat cores can access 512KB level 2 cache per core. In comparison to the Atom processors, the Bobcat architecture uses an "out-of-order" execution and is therefore faster at the same clock speed. However, the performance is far worse than similar clocked Penryn (Celeron) or Danube (Athlon II) cores. On average the cpu performance of the E2-2000 is a bit below a Celeron SU2300 at 1.2 GHz or a Athlon II Neo K325 at 1.3 GHz. 

The integrated Radeon HD 7340 graphics card offers 80 shaders, clocked at 538 - 700 MHz, and an UVD3 video processor. Compared to the slow GMA 3150 in the Atom processors, the HD7340 offers a lot more performance and is about as fast as the Nvidia ION graphics solution.

The power consumption is rated with a TDP of 18 W by AMD. That's about the same level as Intels (significantly faster) ULV CPUs.

Intel Core i7-10700

The Intel Core i7-10700 is a high-end desktop CPU based on the Comet Lake architecture. The CPU offers 8 cores and 16 threads clocked at 2.9 - 4.8 GHz. All cores can run at up to 4.6 GHz.

Compared to the older Core i7-9700, the 10700 now enables HyperThreading and therefore in some applications a nice performance boost. The single core performance is quite similar.

The chip is manufactured on 14nm++ process at Intel. The TDP is rated at 65 Watt (PL1) but the PL2 is set to 224 Watt for short term boosts (up to 28 seconds).
