A few months after unveiling the 3A6000 CPU, Loongson is now enjoying new reviews that seemingly vouch for the processor’s prowess and performance levels. Chinese site MyDrivers took the Loongson 3A6000 CPU for a spin, confirming that the chip can achieve “comparable” performance to a three-year-old Intel Core CPU.
MyDrivers tested the 3A6000 model in synthetic benchmarks and found that the chip provides 60 percent more performance in single-core tasks and an impressive 2x performance uplift for multi-core tasks compared to the 3A5000. The Loongson 3A6000 is a quad-core CPU and appears to be more efficient than the previous generation, with true multi-threading support.
