Ryzen 3 3200U vs Core i7-920 comparison
Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Core i7-920 performs better 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 i7-920 has significantly more cores with 4 cores compared to the Ryzen 3 3200U that has 2 cores. It also has more threads than the Ryzen 3 3200U. With our hardware info, we find that the Core i7-920 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 i7-920 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 Core i7-920 has significantly more L2 cache when compared to the Ryzen 3 3200U
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.
