Ryzen 3 2200U vs Core i5-8350U benchmarks

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Core i5-8350U performs better than the Ryzen 3 2200U. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Ryzen 3 2200U in all gaming tests too.

When comparing core counts for these CPUs, we notice that the Core i5-8350U has significantly more cores with 4 cores compared to the Ryzen 3 2200U that has 2 cores. It also has more threads than the Ryzen 3 2200U. Our comparison shows that the Ryzen 3 2200U has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the Core i5-8350U. Despite this, the Core i5-8350U 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. In terms of cache, both these CPUs have the same amount of L2 cache. The Core i5-8350U also has significantly more L3 cache.

Modern CPUs generally have more logical cores than physical cores, this means that each core is split into multiple virtual cores, improving efficiency for parallel workloads. Indeed, the Ryzen 3 2200U has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
