Ryzen 3 2200U vs Athlon X4 870K specs and performance
In our benchmarks, the Athlon X4 870K beats the Ryzen 3 2200U in overall performance. Despite this, the Ryzen 3 2200U has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.
When comparing these CPUs we notice that they have the same number of cores and the same number of threads. Our comparison shows that the Athlon X4 870K has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the Ryzen 3 2200U. Also, the Athlon X4 870K has a slightly higher turbo speed. A Ryzen 3 2200U CPU outputs less heat than a Athlon X4 870K CPU because of its significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption. The cache sizes of these CPUs are different. Indeed, the Athlon X4 870K has significantly more L2 cache than the Ryzen 3 2200U
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. Indeed, the Ryzen 3 2200U has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
