Ryzen 3 3300U vs Xeon E5-2690 comparison

In our benchmarks, the Xeon E5-2690 beats the Ryzen 3 3300U in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Ryzen 3 3300U in all gaming tests too.

With info from our database, we find that the Xeon E5-2690 has significantly more cores with 8 cores whereas the Ryzen 3 3300U has 4 cores. It also has more threads than the Ryzen 3 3300U. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Xeon E5-2690 has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Ryzen 3 3300U. Also, the Xeon E5-2690 has a slightly higher turbo speed. A Ryzen 3 3300U CPU outputs less heat than a Xeon E5-2690 CPU because of its significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption.

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. For instance, the Ryzen 3 3300U has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
