Ryzen 3 3100 vs Core i5-10310U comparison

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Ryzen 3 3100 is faster than the Core i5-10310U. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i5-10310U in all gaming tests too.

When comparing these CPUs we notice that they have the same number of cores and the same number of threads. Our comparison shows that the Ryzen 3 3100 has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the Core i5-10310U. Despite this, the Core i5-10310U has a slightly higher turbo speed. The Core i5-10310U outputs less heat than Ryzen 3 3100 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. Indeed, the Ryzen 3 3100 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
