Ryzen 3 2200G vs Core i7-4790S benchmarks

In our benchmarks, the Core i7-4790S beats the Ryzen 3 2200G in overall performance. Despite this, the Ryzen 3 2200G has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

Info from our database shows that they both have the same core count but the Core i7-4790S has more threads. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Ryzen 3 2200G has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i7-4790S. Despite this, the Core i7-4790S 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.

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.
