Ryzen 3 3200U vs Core i5-2400 specs and performance

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Core i5-2400 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.

In terms of the number of cores of each of these CPUs, the Core i5-2400 has significantly more cores than the Ryzen 3 3200U. Indeed, the Core i5-2400 has 4 cores compared to 2 cores found in the Ryzen 3 3200U. But they both have the same number of threads. With our hardware info, we find that the Core i5-2400 has a slightly higher clock speed than the Ryzen 3 3200U. Despite this, the Ryzen 3 3200U has a slightly higher turbo speed. A Ryzen 3 3200U CPU outputs less heat than a Core i5-2400 CPU because of its significantly 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. Indeed, the Ryzen 3 3200U has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
