Ryzen 3 2200U vs Core i7-920 specs and performance

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Core i7-920 is faster than the Ryzen 3 2200U. Despite this, the Ryzen 3 2200U has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

With info from our database, we find that the Core i7-920 has significantly more cores with 4 cores whereas the Ryzen 3 2200U has 2 cores. It also has more threads than the Ryzen 3 2200U. Our comparison shows that the Core i7-920 has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Ryzen 3 2200U. Despite this, the Ryzen 3 2200U has a slightly higher turbo speed. A Ryzen 3 2200U CPU outputs less heat than a Core i7-920 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 Core i7-920 has significantly more L2 cache than the Ryzen 3 2200U

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. Indeed, the Ryzen 3 2200U has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
