Ryzen 3 1200 vs Ryzen 3 4300U specs and performance

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Ryzen 3 4300U is faster than the Ryzen 3 1200. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Ryzen 3 1200 in all gaming tests too.

Info from our database shows that they both have the same core count and the same number of threads. Our comparison shows that the Ryzen 3 1200 has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Ryzen 3 4300U. Despite this, the Ryzen 3 4300U has a slightly higher turbo speed. The Ryzen 3 4300U 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. When comparing cache sizes, these CPUs have an identical amount of L2 cache. The Ryzen 3 1200 also has significantly more L3 cache.

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.
