Core i3-4150 vs Athlon 3000G specs and performance

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Athlon 3000G performs better than the Core i3-4150. Despite this, the Core i3-4150 has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

When comparing these CPUs we notice that they have the same number of cores and the same number of threads. According to our data, the Core i3-4150 and Athlon 3000G have the same clock speed. The Athlon 3000G outputs less heat than Core i3-4150 thanks to a significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption.

The more cores a CPU has, the better the overall performance will be in parallel workloads such as multitasking. Many CPUs have more threads than cores, this means that each physical core is split into multiple logical cores, making them more efficient. Indeed, the Core i3-4150 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
