Ryzen 7 2700U vs Core i3-8100T benchmarks

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Ryzen 7 2700U is faster than the Core i3-8100T. Despite this, the Core i3-8100T has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

Our spec comparison shows that they have an identical amount of cores but the Ryzen 7 2700U has more threads. With our hardware info, we find that the Core i3-8100T has a slightly higher clock speed than the Ryzen 7 2700U. A Ryzen 7 2700U 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 info from our database shows that the Ryzen 7 2700U has more L2 cache than the Core i3-8100T. Despite this, the Core i3-8100T has significantly more L3 cache compared to the Ryzen 7 2700U.

Modern CPUs generally have more logical cores than physical cores, this means that each core is split into multiple virtual cores, improving efficiency for parallel workloads. Indeed, the Ryzen 7 2700U has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
