Ryzen 3 1200 vs Core i7-3610QM specs and performance

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Ryzen 3 1200 performs better than the Core i7-3610QM. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i7-3610QM in all gaming tests too.

Our spec comparison shows that they have an identical amount of cores but the Core i7-3610QM has more threads. Our comparison shows that the Ryzen 3 1200 has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i7-3610QM. Also, the Ryzen 3 1200 has a slightly higher turbo speed. The Core i7-3610QM outputs less heat than Ryzen 3 1200 thanks to a significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption.

Most CPUs have more threads than cores. This technology, colloquially called hyperthreading, improves performance by splitting a core into multiple virtual ones. This provides more efficient utilisation of a core. For instance, the Ryzen 3 1200 has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
