Comparisons 11-03-2021

So, which processor or chip is better? Comprehensive data of benchmarks and speed tests Intel Atom x7-Z8700 vs MediaTek Helio P22T, comparison of GPUs PowerVR GE8320 and Intel HD Graphics (Cherry Trail).

This performance comparison includes two processors: Atom x7-Z8700 is quad-core (SoFIA) and Helio P22T is octa-core (Cortex-A53). Both processors went throughpower consumption test and battery life test. A thorough review of all the technical characteristics of the processors, to make it easier to read, is summarized in the table.

From the video comparison, you can get the results of parallel benchmarking in special testing software such as Octane V2, 3DMark, Neocore, PassMark, Vellamo, GeekBench 6, 5, Mozilla Kraken, AnTuTu 8, GFXBench, Quadrant, PCMark, WebXPRT 3, and how good the CPUs are in games Garena Free Fire - The Cobra, Mortal Kombat, Minecraft Bedrock, Sniper 3D, PUBG, Real Racing 3, Call of Duty: Mobile, Fortnite etc.

After looking at the data these benchmarks and videos, you already be able to understand which chip is better to buy Atom x7-Z8700 or Helio P22T and which chip is better for gaming: Madout2, CSR Racing 2, Asphalt 9, Need for Speed No Limits.
