AMD Athlon 3000G vs Intel Xeon E5-450

Athlon 3000G vs Xeon E5-450 benchmarks

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Athlon 3000G performs better than the Xeon E5-450. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Xeon E5-450 in all gaming tests too.

In terms of the number of cores of each of these CPUs, the Xeon E5-450 has significantly more cores than the Athlon 3000G. Indeed, the Xeon E5-450 has 4 cores compared to 2 cores found in the Athlon 3000G. But they both have the same number of threads. With our hardware info, we find that the Athlon 3000G has a slightly higher clock speed than the Xeon E5-450. A Athlon 3000G CPU outputs less heat than a Xeon E5-450 CPU because of its significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption. In terms of cache, the Xeon E5-450 has significantly more L2 cache when compared to the Athlon 3000G

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 Athlon 3000G has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
