About Hardware AMD A6-3400M
Launched in mid-2011, the AMD A6-3400M is a mobile processor from the Llano family designed for mid-range laptops. It has 4 cores and 4 threads with a base speed of 1.4 GHz, which can increase to 2.3 GHz thanks to the Turbo Core feature. Built with a 32nm fabrication process, the A6-3400M offers pretty good power efficiency with a TDP of 35W, making it a common choice for mainstream laptops in its day.
In addition to the CPU, the A6-3400M is also integrated with the AMD Radeon HD 6520G GPU, which has 320 shader cores based on the Terascale 2 architecture. This combination of CPU and GPU enables sufficient graphics processing for everyday tasks and light gaming at low resolutions.
In terms of performance, the A6-3400M is capable of handling basic tasks such as browsing, multimedia, and productivity applications. However, compared to the same generation of Intel Core i3 processors, its performance is less competitive especially in single-threaded applications.

About Hardware Intel Core i7 11700
Part of the Rocket Lake family, the Intel Core i7-11700 is a high-performance desktop processor released in 2021. It has 8 cores and 16 threads, with a base clock speed of 2.5 GHz and can increase to 4.9 GHz with Turbo Boost.
Built on 14nm fabrication, the i7-11700 brings architectural improvements over its predecessor, with higher IPC (Instructions Per Cycle). The processor has a TDP of 65W, but it can increase under high workload conditions.
In terms of graphics, the i7-11700 uses Intel UHD Graphics 750, which supports 4K video playback and some light gaming. However, for more serious gaming, the use of a discrete graphics card is still required.
With its strong multi-threaded performance, the i7-11700 is suitable for gaming, video editing, and other heavy tasks. However, since it is still 14nm-based, its power efficiency is not as good as the latest AMD Ryzen processors that use smaller fabrication.
