Ryzen 5 2400G vs Xeon E5-2689 benchmarks

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Xeon E5-2689 is faster than the Ryzen 5 2400G. Despite this, the Ryzen 5 2400G has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

When comparing core counts for these CPUs, we notice that the Xeon E5-2689 has significantly more cores with 8 cores compared to the Ryzen 5 2400G that has 4 cores. It also has more threads than the Ryzen 5 2400G. A Ryzen 5 2400G CPU outputs less heat than a Xeon E5-2689 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. Indeed, the Ryzen 5 2400G has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
