Ryzen 3 3200U vs Core i5-9400 comparison

In our benchmarks, the Core i5-9400 beats the Ryzen 3 3200U in overall performance. 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 i5-9400 has significantly more cores than the Ryzen 3 3200U. Indeed, the Core i5-9400 has 6 cores compared to 2 cores found in the Ryzen 3 3200U. It also has more threads than the Ryzen 3 3200U. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Core i5-9400 has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Ryzen 3 3200U. Also, the Core i5-9400 has a slightly higher turbo speed. A Ryzen 3 3200U CPU outputs less heat than a Core i5-9400 CPU because of its significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption. The cache sizes of these CPUs are different. Indeed, the Core i5-9400 has significantly more L2 cache than the Ryzen 3 3200U. The Core i5-9400 also has significantly more L3 cache.

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.
