Ryzen 3 2200G vs Core i5-6600T specs and performance

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Ryzen 3 2200G performs better than the Core i5-6600T. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i5-6600T in all gaming tests too.

When comparing these CPUs we notice that they have the same number of cores and the same number of threads. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Ryzen 3 2200G has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i5-6600T. Also, the Ryzen 3 2200G has a slightly higher turbo speed. The Core i5-6600T outputs less heat than Ryzen 3 2200G thanks to a significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption.

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