In many cases, it is hard to envision the gap in sensor dimensions purely by seeing a spec sheet. The picture here will help provide you a better sense of the sensor sizing in the SX600 HS and SX710 HS.

As you can see, both the cameras provide the same sensor dimensions but not the same megapixels. You should anticipate the Canon SX710 HS to provide more detail because of its extra 4 Megapixels. Greater resolution can also make it easier to crop images more aggressively. The more aged SX600 HS will be disadvantaged when it comes to sensor technology.
