Ryzen 3 1200 vs Ryzen 7 7840HS benchmarks

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Ryzen 7 7840HS 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.

With info from our database, we find that the Ryzen 7 7840HS has significantly more cores with 8 cores whereas the Ryzen 3 1200 has 4 cores. It also has more threads than the Ryzen 3 1200. With our hardware info, we find that the Ryzen 7 7840HS has a slightly higher clock speed than the Ryzen 3 1200. Also, the Ryzen 7 7840HS has a significantly higher turbo speed. The Ryzen 7 7840HS outputs less heat than Ryzen 3 1200 thanks to a slightly lower TDP. 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 Ryzen 7 7840HS has significantly more L2 cache than the Ryzen 3 1200. The Ryzen 7 7840HS also has significantly more L3 cache.

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.
