MediaTek MT6752 vs Intel Atom x5-Z8350

Comparisons   11-03-2021
   Well, which processor or chip is better? Detailed comparison data of benchmarks MediaTek MT6752 vs Intel Atom x5-Z8350, speed testing of GPUs Mali-T760 MP2 and Intel HD Graphics (Cherry Trail).
   This performance comparison includes two processors: MT6752 is octa-core (ARM Cortex-A53) and Atom x5-Z8350 is quad-core (SoFIA). Both processors went through battery life test and power consumption test. A step-by-step analysis of all the specifications of the processors, so that it can be easier to understand, is presented in the form of the table.
   From the comparison video, you can get the results of parallel benchmarking in software tests like PassMark, Quadrant, 3DMark, GFXBench, Geekbench, WebXPRT 3, Mozilla Kraken, Vellamo, Neocore, Octane V2, PCMark, AnTuTu 8, even the gaming performance of chips in Garena Free Fire - The Cobra, Real Racing 3, Mortal Kombat, Call of Duty: Mobile, PUBG, Sniper 3D, Minecraft Bedrock, Fortnite etc.
   After reading the results of joint benchmarks and videos, you already be able to figure out which chip is better to buy MT6752 or Atom x5-Z8350 and which chip is better for gaming: CSR Racing 2, Need for Speed No Limits, Madout2, Asphalt 9.
