Ryzen 5 3350G vs Core i7-6700 comparison

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Ryzen 5 3350G is faster than the Core i7-6700. Despite this, the Core i7-6700 has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

Our spec comparison shows that they have an identical amount of cores and the same number of threads. With our hardware info, we find that the Ryzen 5 3350G has a slightly higher clock speed than the Core i7-6700. Both these chips have an identical TDP (Thermal Design Power). 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. Indeed, the Ryzen 5 3350G has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
