Ryzen 3 3200U vs Core i5-5257U comparison

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Core i5-5257U performs better than the Ryzen 3 3200U. Despite this, the Ryzen 3 3200U has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

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 i5-5257U has a slightly higher clock speed compared to 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 i5-5257U CPU because of its significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption. In terms of cache, the Ryzen 3 3200U has significantly more L2 cache when compared to the Core i5-5257U. The Ryzen 3 3200U also has slightly more L3 cache.

Modern CPUs generally have more logical cores than physical cores, this means that each core is split into multiple virtual cores, improving efficiency for parallel workloads. Indeed, the Ryzen 3 3200U has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
