Core i3-12100F vs Ryzen AI 5 340 benchmarks

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Core i3-12100F performs better than the Ryzen AI 5 340. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Ryzen AI 5 340 in all gaming tests too.

When comparing core counts for these CPUs, we notice that the Ryzen AI 5 340 has significantly more cores with 6 cores compared to the Core i3-12100F that has 4 cores. It also has more threads than the Core i3-12100F. With our hardware info, we find that the Core i3-12100F has a significantly higher clock speed than the Ryzen AI 5 340. Despite this, the Ryzen AI 5 340 has a slightly higher turbo speed. The Ryzen AI 5 340 outputs less heat than Core i3-12100F 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 i3-12100F has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
