AMD Ryzen 7 3700X vs Intel Core i7-10700T

Ryzen 7 3700X vs Core i7-10700T specs and performance

In our benchmarks, the Ryzen 7 3700X beats the Core i7-10700T in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i7-10700T in all gaming tests too.

When comparing these CPUs we notice that they have the same number of cores and the same number of threads. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Ryzen 7 3700X has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the Core i7-10700T. Despite this, the Core i7-10700T has a slightly higher turbo speed. The Core i7-10700T outputs less heat than Ryzen 7 3700X thanks to a significantly lower TDP. 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 7 3700X has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
