Ryzen 3 2200G vs Core i7-2600K specs and performance

In our benchmarks, the Ryzen 3 2200G beats the Core i7-2600K in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i7-2600K in all gaming tests too.

Our spec comparison shows that they have an identical amount of cores but the Core i7-2600K has more threads. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Ryzen 3 2200G has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i7-2600K. Despite this, the Core i7-2600K has a slightly higher turbo speed. A Ryzen 3 2200G CPU outputs less heat than a Core i7-2600K CPU because of its 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.
