Ryzen 3 2200G vs Core i7-3720QM benchmarks

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Ryzen 3 2200G performs better than the Core i7-3720QM. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i7-3720QM in all gaming tests too.

When comparing these CPUs we notice that they have the same number of cores but the Core i7-3720QM has more threads. Our comparison shows that the Ryzen 3 2200G has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i7-3720QM. Also, the Ryzen 3 2200G has a slightly higher turbo speed. The Core i7-3720QM 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.
