How do AMD and i3 processor differ?
You cant compare AMD with i3, AMD is the manufacturer of processors and i3 is the processor lineup from Intel (another processor manufacturer). You cant compare between a manufacturer and the lineup. You have to mention the name of the processors.
Which one should I take, Ryzen 3 3200G or i3 9100?
If you want to build your pc only for performance, then go with i3 9100 with a discrete graphics card. If your budget is low, then go with Ryzen 3 3200G. It comes with a powerful vega 8 integrated GPU, so a discrete graphics card is not required. You can play almost every modern day games with a low setting.
Is Ryzen better than Intel?
Ryzen will give you more value for money compared to the Intel. But Intel can give you slightly better performance. So according to your budget, you have to decide.
Why is AMD 3200U only slightly better than 2200U?
3200U base clock is 2.6 GHz and turbo clock is 3.3 GHz, 2200U base clock is 2.5 GHz and turbo clock is 3.15 GHz. So 3200U can give 1% better performance.
Which processor is better, Intel i5 or Ryzen 3 2200G?
Intel i5 is not a particular processor, its the lineup from Intel. Ryzen 3 2200G is a particular processor. So you cant compare between a lineup and a particular processor.
Is the Ryzen 3 3200G good for gaming?
Ryzen 3 3200G is good for gaming with lower settings. It comes with a powerful integrated Vega 8 GPU, which is an 8 core GPU with decent clock rates. It can run almost every modern game with low to medium settings.
