What kind of new gen intel / amd cpu is close enough to i5 4440?

[StanicEnemy]

I really wonder since i have i5 4440 i would love to know.

Userbenchmark seems to think that Ryzen 3 1300X and Intel Core i3-8100 are both bit faster than that i5.

R3 1200 in AMD's side (at stock speeds), nothing in Intel's side (i3-8100 is faster, the fastest Pentium is slower)

i3-8100 is slightly faster but that's it for current gen. I wouldn't consider anything lower because they start cutting instructions that are also present on the i5. There will be IPC increases as well as faster ram support all adding up, it will be faster overall.

 

For light workloads, the R3 1200 does seem a close match on paper although probably falls behind slightly due to IPC. If you care about FPU performance, you'd need to step up to 1700 as Ryzen has about half the potency compared to Intel in that department. You need to double the core count to keep up.

It's true because the 8 gen intel i3 cpu's have 4 cores 4 threads. So do older i5's
