Ryzen 3 3350U vs FX-8300 comparison

In our benchmarks, the Ryzen 3 3350U beats the FX-8300 in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the FX-8300 in all gaming tests too.

When comparing these CPUs we notice that they have the same number of cores but the FX-8300 has more threads. With our hardware info, we find that the FX-8300 has a significantly higher clock speed than the Ryzen 3 3350U. Also, the FX-8300 has a slightly higher turbo speed. A Ryzen 3 3350U CPU outputs less heat than a FX-8300 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 FX-8300 has significantly more L2 cache than the Ryzen 3 3350U. The FX-8300 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. For instance, the Ryzen 3 3350U has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
