Core i5-7600K vs Ryzen 3 7320U benchmarks

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Ryzen 3 7320U performs better than the Core i5-7600K. Despite this, the Core i5-7600K has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

Our spec comparison shows that they have an identical amount of cores but the Ryzen 3 7320U has more threads. Our comparison shows that the Core i5-7600K has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the Ryzen 3 7320U. In terms of cache, the Ryzen 3 7320U has significantly more L2 cache when compared to the Core i5-7600K. Despite this, the Core i5-7600K has significantly more L3 cache compared to the Ryzen 3 7320U.

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 i5-7600K has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
