Ryzen 3 1200 vs Core i5-4570 specs and performance

In our benchmarks, the Ryzen 3 1200 beats the Core i5-4570 in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i5-4570 in all gaming tests too.

Our spec comparison shows that they have an identical amount of cores and the same number of threads. Our comparison shows that the Core i5-4570 has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Ryzen 3 1200. Also, the Core i5-4570 has a slightly higher turbo speed. A Ryzen 3 1200 CPU outputs less heat than a Core i5-4570 CPU because of its slightly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption.

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.
