Core i3-9300 vs Ryzen 3 7320U benchmarks

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Ryzen 3 7320U performs better than the Core i3-9300. Despite this, the Core i3-9300 has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

Info from our database shows that they both have the same core count but the Ryzen 3 7320U has more threads. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Core i3-9300 has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the Ryzen 3 7320U. Also, the Core i3-9300 has a slightly higher turbo speed. The Ryzen 3 7320U outputs less heat than Core i3-9300 thanks to a significantly 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 3 7320U has significantly more L2 cache than the Core i3-9300. Despite this, the Core i3-9300 has significantly more L3 cache compared to the Ryzen 3 7320U.

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. For instance, the Core i3-9300 has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
