Ryzen 5 3350G vs Ryzen 5 3500X comparison

In our benchmarks, the Ryzen 5 3500X beats the Ryzen 5 3350G in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Ryzen 5 3350G in all gaming tests too.

When comparing core counts for these CPUs, we notice that the Ryzen 5 3500X has significantly more cores with 6 cores compared to the Ryzen 5 3350G that has 4 cores. Despite this, the Ryzen 5 3350G has more threads than the Ryzen 5 3500X. Both the Ryzen 5 3350G and Ryzen 5 3500X have the same clock speed. 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.
