Ryzen 3 2300X vs Core i7-10710U benchmarks

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Core i7-10710U is faster than the Ryzen 3 2300X. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Ryzen 3 2300X in all gaming tests too.

When comparing core counts for these CPUs, we notice that the Core i7-10710U has significantly more cores with 6 cores compared to the Ryzen 3 2300X that has 4 cores. It also has more threads than the Ryzen 3 2300X. Our comparison shows that the Ryzen 3 2300X has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the Core i7-10710U. Despite this, the Core i7-10710U has a slightly higher turbo speed. The Core i7-10710U 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. The info from our database shows that the Ryzen 3 2300X has more L2 cache than the Core i7-10710U. Despite this, the Core i7-10710U has significantly more L3 cache compared to the Ryzen 3 2300X.

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. For instance, the Ryzen 3 2300X has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
