Ryzen 3 2200G vs A6-9500 specs and performance

In our benchmarks, the Ryzen 3 2200G beats the A6-9500 in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the A6-9500 in all gaming tests too.

In terms of the number of cores of each of these CPUs, the Ryzen 3 2200G has significantly more cores than the A6-9500. Indeed, the Ryzen 3 2200G has 4 cores compared to 2 cores found in the A6-9500. It also has more threads than the A6-9500. Both the Ryzen 3 2200G and A6-9500 have the same clock speed. Despite this, the A6-9500 has a slightly higher turbo speed. Both these chips have an identical TDP (Thermal Design Power). This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption. In terms of cache, the Ryzen 3 2200G has significantly more L2 cache when compared to the A6-9500

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 2200G has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
