Ryzen 3 2200U vs Core i7-6498DU comparison

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Ryzen 3 2200U performs better than the Core i7-6498DU. Despite this, the Core i7-6498DU 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 i7-6498DU has a slightly higher clock speed than the Ryzen 3 2200U. In terms of cache, the Ryzen 3 2200U has significantly more L2 cache when compared to the Core i7-6498DU. However, both these chips have the same amount of L3 cache.

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.
