Ryzen 5 3400G vs Xeon E3-1245 v5 comparison

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Ryzen 5 3400G performs better than the Xeon E3-1245 v5. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Xeon E3-1245 v5 in all gaming tests too.

When comparing these CPUs we notice that they have the same number of cores and the same number of threads. Our comparison shows that the Ryzen 5 3400G has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Xeon E3-1245 v5. Also, the Ryzen 5 3400G has a slightly higher turbo speed. A Ryzen 5 3400G CPU outputs less heat than a Xeon E3-1245 v5 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 3400G has significantly more L2 cache when compared to the Xeon E3-1245 v5. Despite this, the Xeon E3-1245 v5 has significantly more L3 cache compared to the Ryzen 5 3400G.

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 3400G has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
