Ryzen 3 3200G vs Core i7-4790K specs and performance

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Core i7-4790K performs better than the Ryzen 3 3200G. Despite this, the Ryzen 3 3200G has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

When comparing these CPUs we notice that they have the same number of cores but the Core i7-4790K has more threads. With our hardware info, we find that the Core i7-4790K has a slightly higher clock speed than the Ryzen 3 3200G. A Ryzen 3 3200G CPU outputs less heat than a Core i7-4790K CPU because of its slightly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption.

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.
