Ryzen 3 2300X vs Core i7-4770S specs and performance

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Ryzen 3 2300X performs better than the Core i7-4770S. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i7-4770S in all gaming tests too.

Info from our database shows that they both have the same core count but the Core i7-4770S has more threads. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Ryzen 3 2300X has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i7-4770S. Also, the Ryzen 3 2300X 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.

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.
