Core i3-8109U vs Ryzen 5 PRO 2400GE comparison

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Ryzen 5 PRO 2400GE performs better than the Core i3-8109U. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i3-8109U in all gaming tests too.

In terms of the number of cores of each of these CPUs, the Ryzen 5 PRO 2400GE has significantly more cores than the Core i3-8109U. Indeed, the Ryzen 5 PRO 2400GE has 4 cores compared to 2 cores found in the Core i3-8109U. It also has more threads than the Core i3-8109U. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Ryzen 5 PRO 2400GE has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i3-8109U. Also, the Ryzen 5 PRO 2400GE has a slightly higher turbo speed. A Core i3-8109U CPU outputs less heat than a Ryzen 5 PRO 2400GE CPU because of its 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 5 PRO 2400GE has significantly more L2 cache than the Core i3-8109U. However, both these chips have the same amount of L3 cache.

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 i3-8109U has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
