Ryzen 3 1200 vs A8-7600 specs and performance

In our benchmarks, the Ryzen 3 1200 beats the A8-7600 in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the A8-7600 in all gaming tests too.

In terms of the number of cores of each of these CPUs, the Ryzen 3 1200 has significantly more cores than the A8-7600. Indeed, the Ryzen 3 1200 has 4 cores compared to 2 cores found in the A8-7600. But they both have the same number of threads. In terms of clock speed, the Ryzen 3 1200 and A8-7600 are identical in this regard. Despite this, the A8-7600 has a slightly higher turbo speed. Both these chips have an identical TDP (Thermal Design Power). 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 A8-7600 has significantly more L2 cache than the Ryzen 3 1200

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 Ryzen 3 1200 has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
