Ryzen 7 3800X vs Ryzen 7 5700G benchmarks

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Ryzen 7 3800X performs better than the Ryzen 7 5700G. Despite this, the Ryzen 7 5700G has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

Our spec comparison shows that they have an identical amount of cores and the same number of threads. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Ryzen 7 3800X has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Ryzen 7 5700G. Despite this, the Ryzen 7 5700G has a slightly higher turbo speed. The Ryzen 7 5700G outputs less heat than Ryzen 7 3800X 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 3800X also has significantly more L3 cache.

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 3800X has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
