Ryzen 3 3100 vs Core i5-10600 benchmarks
Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Core i5-10600 performs better than the Ryzen 3 3100. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Ryzen 3 3100 in all gaming tests too.
When comparing core counts for these CPUs, we notice that the Core i5-10600 has significantly more cores with 6 cores compared to the Ryzen 3 3100 that has 4 cores. It also has more threads than the Ryzen 3 3100. With our hardware info, we find that the Ryzen 3 3100 has a slightly higher clock speed than the Core i5-10600. Despite this, the Core i5-10600 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. The info from our database shows that the Ryzen 3 3100 has more L2 cache than the Core i5-10600. The Ryzen 3 3100 also has slightly more L3 cache.
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.
