Ryzen 5 2600 vs Xeon E5-2687W specs and performance
In our benchmarks, the Ryzen 5 2600 beats the Xeon E5-2687W in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Xeon E5-2687W in all gaming tests too.
When comparing core counts for these CPUs, we notice that the Xeon E5-2687W has slightly more cores with 8 cores compared to the Ryzen 5 2600 that has 6 cores. It also has more threads than the Ryzen 5 2600. With our hardware info, we find that the Ryzen 5 2600 has a slightly higher clock speed than the Xeon E5-2687W. Also, the Ryzen 5 2600 has a slightly higher turbo speed. A Ryzen 5 2600 CPU outputs less heat than a Xeon E5-2687W 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 Ryzen 5 2600 has significantly more L2 cache when compared to the Xeon E5-2687W. Despite this, the Xeon E5-2687W has slightly more L3 cache compared to the Ryzen 5 2600.
The more cores a CPU has, the better the overall performance will be in parallel workloads such as multitasking. Many CPUs have more threads than cores, this means that each physical core is split into multiple logical cores, making them more efficient. Indeed, the Ryzen 5 2600 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
