Ryzen 3 3300U vs Core i5-6600T specs and performance

In our benchmarks, the Ryzen 3 3300U beats the Core i5-6600T in overall performance. Despite this, the Core i5-6600T 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 i5-6600T has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Ryzen 3 3300U. Furthermore, both these CPUs have identical turbo speeds. A Ryzen 3 3300U CPU outputs less heat than a Core i5-6600T 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. For instance, the Ryzen 3 3300U has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
