Ryzen 5 3500 vs Ryzen 5 8600G specs and performance
In our benchmarks, the Ryzen 5 8600G beats the Ryzen 5 3500 in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Ryzen 5 3500 in all gaming tests too.
Info from our database shows that they both have the same core count but the Ryzen 5 8600G has more threads. With our hardware info, we find that the Ryzen 5 8600G has a slightly higher clock speed than the Ryzen 5 3500. Also, the Ryzen 5 8600G has a slightly higher turbo 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. The cache sizes of these CPUs are different. Indeed, the Ryzen 5 8600G has significantly more L2 cache than the Ryzen 5 3500. However, both these chips have the same amount of 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 5 3500 has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
