Core i5-6600K vs Ryzen 3 PRO 3200G benchmarks

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Core i5-6600K is faster than the Ryzen 3 PRO 3200G. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Ryzen 3 PRO 3200G in all gaming tests too.

When comparing these CPUs we notice that they have the same number of cores and the same number of threads. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Ryzen 3 PRO 3200G has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i5-6600K. The cache sizes of these CPUs are different. Indeed, the Ryzen 3 PRO 3200G has significantly more L2 cache than the Core i5-6600K. Despite this, the Core i5-6600K has significantly more L3 cache compared to the Ryzen 3 PRO 3200G.

Modern CPUs generally have more logical cores than physical cores, this means that each core is split into multiple virtual cores, improving efficiency for parallel workloads. For instance, the Core i5-6600K has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
