Intel i3-10100 CPU Review vs. AMD Ryzen 3 3300X, 3100, & i7-7700K Benchmarks
6,145Intel's i3-10100 CPU is basically an old Intel i7 CPU, except way cheaper. Intel gets credit for that, but it doesn't exist in a vacuum. Tests ft. i3-10100 with 2666MHz & standardized RAM vs. Ryzen.

In this video, we're benchmarking and reviewing the Intel i3-10100 CPU versus the AMD Ryzen 3 3300X, 3100, 3600, the Intel i7-7700K, i5-10400, 10600K, and more. Most the modern CPUs are on there, with a few references back to previous launches. Intel's i3-10100 CPU vs. 10300 & 10320 differences are mostly comprised of 100MHz gaps between the SKUs, with a 2MB cache difference jumping-out as well. We bought the i3-10100 for about $140, which puts it a bit above where AMD's Ryzen 3 3300X is supposed to land, and significantly about where the R3 3100 is supposed to land (although stock of all 3 of these CPUs is still somewhat uncommon in the US market). Benchmarking includes a look at our standardized test kit of memory, used on all platforms, and additional tests of the i3-10100 on a B/H motherboard simulation using 2666MHz memory. For additional questions about this, you can see our piece linked above this paragraph, where we explored timings all the way down to CL10 2666MHz on the i5-10400, and all the way up to 4000MHz.
