Ryzen 3 3200U vs Core i3-2100 benchmarks

In our benchmarks, the Ryzen 3 3200U beats the Core i3-2100 in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i3-2100 in all gaming tests too.

Info from our database shows that they both have the same core count and the same number of threads. Our comparison shows that the Core i3-2100 has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Ryzen 3 3200U. A Ryzen 3 3200U CPU outputs less heat than a Core i3-2100 CPU because of its 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 3200U has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
