Ryzen 7 3700X vs Ryzen 7 4800U benchmarks

In our benchmarks, the Ryzen 7 3700X beats the Ryzen 7 4800U in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Ryzen 7 4800U 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. With our hardware info, we find that the Ryzen 7 3700X has a significantly higher clock speed than the Ryzen 7 4800U. Also, the Ryzen 7 3700X has a slightly higher turbo speed. The Ryzen 7 4800U 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. In terms of cache, both these CPUs have the same amount of L2 cache. The Ryzen 7 3700X also has significantly more 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. Indeed, the Ryzen 7 3700X has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
