Ryzen 5 3500U vs Core i3-8100T specs and performance
In our benchmarks, the Ryzen 5 3500U beats the Core i3-8100T in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i3-8100T in all gaming tests too.
When comparing these CPUs we notice that they have the same number of cores but the Ryzen 5 3500U has more threads. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Core i3-8100T has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the Ryzen 5 3500U. A Ryzen 5 3500U 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 cache sizes of these CPUs are different. Indeed, the Ryzen 5 3500U has significantly more L2 cache than the Core i3-8100T. Despite this, the Core i3-8100T has significantly more L3 cache compared to the Ryzen 5 3500U.
The more cores a CPU has, the better the overall performance will be in parallel workloads such as multitasking. Many CPUs have more threads than cores, this means that each physical core is split into multiple logical cores, making them more efficient. Indeed, the Ryzen 5 3500U has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
