Ryzen 3 3200U vs Core i5-6300HQ comparison

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Core i5-6300HQ is faster than the Ryzen 3 3200U. Despite this, the Ryzen 3 3200U has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

When comparing core counts for these CPUs, we notice that the Core i5-6300HQ has significantly more cores with 4 cores compared to the Ryzen 3 3200U that has 2 cores. But they both have the same number of threads. With our hardware info, we find that the Ryzen 3 3200U has a slightly higher clock speed than the Core i5-6300HQ. Also, the Ryzen 3 3200U has a slightly higher turbo speed. A Ryzen 3 3200U CPU outputs less heat than a Core i5-6300HQ CPU because of its significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption.

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.
