Ryzen 3 2300X vs Ryzen 7 5700G benchmarks

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Ryzen 7 5700G 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.

With info from our database, we find that the Ryzen 7 5700G has significantly more cores with 8 cores whereas the Ryzen 3 2300X has 4 cores. It also has more threads than the Ryzen 3 2300X. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Ryzen 7 5700G has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Ryzen 3 2300X. Also, the Ryzen 7 5700G 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. In terms of cache, the Ryzen 7 5700G has significantly more L2 cache when compared to the Ryzen 3 2300X. The Ryzen 7 5700G also has significantly more L3 cache.

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