Ryzen 5 1400 vs Xeon E5-620 benchmarks

In our benchmarks, the Ryzen 5 1400 beats the Xeon E5-620 in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Xeon E5-620 in all gaming tests too.

Info from our database shows that they both have the same core count and the same number of threads. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Ryzen 5 1400 has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Xeon E5-620. Also, the Ryzen 5 1400 has a slightly higher turbo speed. A Ryzen 5 1400 CPU outputs less heat than a Xeon E5-620 CPU because of its slightly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption. In terms of cache, the Ryzen 5 1400 has significantly more L2 cache when compared to the Xeon E5-620. The Ryzen 5 1400 also has significantly more L3 cache.

Most CPUs have more threads than cores. This technology, colloquially called hyperthreading, improves performance by splitting a core into multiple virtual ones. This provides more efficient utilisation of a core. Indeed, the Ryzen 5 1400 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
