Ryzen 3 2200U vs Core i3-4160 benchmarks

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Ryzen 3 2200U performs better than the Core i3-4160. Despite this, the Core i3-4160 has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

Info from our database shows that they both have the same core count and the same number of threads. With our hardware info, we find that the Core i3-4160 has a significantly higher clock speed than the Ryzen 3 2200U. A Ryzen 3 2200U CPU outputs less heat than a Core i3-4160 CPU because of its significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption.

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.
