Ryzen 3 3200G vs Core i7-3940XM benchmarks

In our benchmarks, the Ryzen 3 3200G beats the Core i7-3940XM in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i7-3940XM in all gaming tests too.

Info from our database shows that they both have the same core count but the Core i7-3940XM has more threads. With our hardware info, we find that the Ryzen 3 3200G has a slightly higher clock speed than the Core i7-3940XM. The Core i7-3940XM outputs less heat than Ryzen 3 3200G thanks to a slightly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption. The cache sizes of these CPUs are different. Indeed, the Ryzen 3 3200G has significantly more L2 cache than the Core i7-3940XM. Despite this, the Core i7-3940XM has significantly more L3 cache compared to the Ryzen 3 3200G.

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 3200G has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
