AMD Ryzen 3 1200 vs AMD Athlon X4 760K

Ryzen 3 1200 vs Athlon X4 760K comparison

In our benchmarks, the Ryzen 3 1200 beats the Athlon X4 760K in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Athlon X4 760K in all gaming tests too.

When comparing core counts for these CPUs, we notice that the Ryzen 3 1200 has significantly more cores with 4 cores compared to the Athlon X4 760K that has 2 cores. But they both have the same number of threads. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Athlon X4 760K has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Ryzen 3 1200. In terms of cache, the Athlon X4 760K has significantly more L2 cache when compared to the Ryzen 3 1200

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