Ryzen 3 3350U vs Core i7-7700HQ specs and performance

In our benchmarks, the Core i7-7700HQ beats the Ryzen 3 3350U in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Ryzen 3 3350U in all gaming tests too.

When comparing these CPUs we notice that they have the same number of cores but the Core i7-7700HQ has more threads. With our hardware info, we find that the Core i7-7700HQ has a slightly higher clock speed than the Ryzen 3 3350U. A Ryzen 3 3350U CPU outputs less heat than a Core i7-7700HQ CPU because of its significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption.

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. For instance, the Ryzen 3 3350U has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
