Ryzen 3 2300X vs Core i3-1125G4 specs and performance

In our benchmarks, the Core i3-1125G4 beats the Ryzen 3 2300X in overall performance. Despite this, the Ryzen 3 2300X has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

Info from our database shows that they both have the same core count but the Core i3-1125G4 has more threads. The Core i3-1125G4 outputs less heat than Ryzen 3 2300X thanks to a 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. For instance, the Ryzen 3 2300X has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
