MediaTek MT8735P vs Intel Atom x3-C3130

Comparisons 11-03-2021

Well, which processor or chip is better? Detailed comparison data of benchmarks MediaTek MT8735P vs Intel Atom x3-C3130, speed testing of GPUs Mali-400 MP2 and Mali-T720 MP2.

This performance comparison includes two processors: MT8735P is quad-core (ARM Cortex-A53) and Atom x3-C3130 is dual-core (SoFIA). Both processors went throughpower consumption test and battery life test. A careful review of all the specifications of the chipsets, so that it can be easier to read, is made by the table.

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

After looking at the data these benchmarks and videos, you already be able to understand which processors is better to buy MT8735P or Atom x3-C3130 and which chip is better for gaming: Madout2, Need for Speed No Limits, CSR Racing 2, Asphalt 9.
