Ryzen 3 5300U vs Core i3-8100T benchmarks

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Ryzen 3 5300U is faster than the Core i3-8100T. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i3-8100T in all gaming tests too.

Info from our database shows that they both have the same core count but the Ryzen 3 5300U has more threads. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Core i3-8100T has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Ryzen 3 5300U. A Ryzen 3 5300U CPU outputs less heat than a Core i3-8100T CPU because of its significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption. The info from our database shows that the Ryzen 3 5300U has more L2 cache than the Core i3-8100T. Despite this, the Core i3-8100T has significantly more L3 cache compared to the Ryzen 3 5300U.

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 5300U has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
