Ryzen 3 3200U vs A8-6500 specs and performance

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the A8-6500 performs better than the Ryzen 3 3200U. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Ryzen 3 3200U 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 A8-6500 has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Ryzen 3 3200U. Also, the A8-6500 has a slightly higher turbo speed. A Ryzen 3 3200U CPU outputs less heat than a A8-6500 CPU because of its significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption. The info from our database shows that the A8-6500 has more L2 cache than the Ryzen 3 3200U

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 3200U has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
