Core i3-8100 vs Ryzen 7 7735HS benchmarks

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Ryzen 7 7735HS performs better than the Core i3-8100. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i3-8100 in all gaming tests too.

In terms of the number of cores of each of these CPUs, the Ryzen 7 7735HS has significantly more cores than the Core i3-8100. Indeed, the Ryzen 7 7735HS has 8 cores compared to 4 cores found in the Core i3-8100. It also has more threads than the Core i3-8100. Our comparison shows that the Core i3-8100 has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Ryzen 7 7735HS. Despite this, the Ryzen 7 7735HS has a slightly higher turbo speed. The Ryzen 7 7735HS outputs less heat than Core i3-8100 thanks to a slightly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption. The cache sizes of these CPUs are different. Indeed, the Ryzen 7 7735HS has significantly more L2 cache than the Core i3-8100. The Ryzen 7 7735HS also has significantly more 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. For instance, the Core i3-8100 has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
