Core i3-12100 vs Ryzen 7 5825U comparison
Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Core i3-12100 performs better than the Ryzen 7 5825U. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Ryzen 7 5825U in all gaming tests too.
When comparing core counts for these CPUs, we notice that the Ryzen 7 5825U has significantly more cores with 8 cores compared to the Core i3-12100 that has 4 cores. It also has more threads than the Core i3-12100. With our hardware info, we find that the Core i3-12100 has a significantly higher clock speed than the Ryzen 7 5825U. Despite this, the Ryzen 7 5825U has a slightly higher turbo speed. The Ryzen 7 5825U outputs less heat than Core i3-12100 thanks to a significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption.
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 Core i3-12100 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
