AMD Ryzen 5 3500X vs Intel Core i3-1115G4

Ryzen 5 3500X vs Core i3-1115G4 comparison

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Ryzen 5 3500X performs better than the Core i3-1115G4. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i3-1115G4 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 Core i3-1115G4 that has 2 cores. It also has more threads than the Core i3-1115G4. With our hardware info, we find that the Ryzen 5 3500X has a slightly higher clock speed than the Core i3-1115G4. In addition, both chips have the same turbo speed. The Core i3-1115G4 outputs less heat than Ryzen 5 3500X thanks to a 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 3500X has slightly more L2 cache than the Core i3-1115G4. The Ryzen 5 3500X also has significantly more L3 cache.

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. For instance, the Ryzen 5 3500X has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
