Athlon 3000G vs Athlon Silver 3050U benchmarks

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Athlon 3000G performs better than the Athlon Silver 3050U. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Athlon Silver 3050U in all gaming tests too.

When comparing these CPUs we notice that they have the same number of cores but the Athlon 3000G has more threads. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Athlon 3000G has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the Athlon Silver 3050U. When comparing cache sizes, these CPUs have an identical amount of L2 cache and L3 cache.

Most CPUs have more threads than cores. This technology, colloquially called hyperthreading, improves performance by splitting a core into multiple virtual ones. This provides more efficient utilisation of a core. Indeed, the Athlon 3000G has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
