Ryzen 3 4300U vs FX-9590 benchmarks

In our benchmarks, the Ryzen 3 4300U beats the FX-9590 in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the FX-9590 in all gaming tests too.

Our spec comparison shows that they have an identical amount of cores but the FX-9590 has more threads. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the FX-9590 has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the Ryzen 3 4300U. A Ryzen 3 4300U CPU outputs less heat than a FX-9590 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-9590 has significantly more L2 cache than the Ryzen 3 4300U. The FX-9590 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 4300U has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
