Core i3-9100F vs Ryzen 3 7320U benchmarks

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Core i3-9100F is faster than the Ryzen 3 7320U. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Ryzen 3 7320U in all gaming tests too.

When comparing these CPUs we notice that they have the same number of cores but the Ryzen 3 7320U has more threads. Our comparison shows that the Core i3-9100F has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the Ryzen 3 7320U. The cache sizes of these CPUs are different. Indeed, the Ryzen 3 7320U has significantly more L2 cache than the Core i3-9100F. Despite this, the Core i3-9100F has significantly more L3 cache compared to the Ryzen 3 7320U.

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 i3-9100F has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
