AMD Ryzen 5 3500U vs Intel Xeon X5570

Ryzen 5 3500U vs Xeon X5570 comparison

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Ryzen 5 3500U is faster than the Xeon X5570. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Xeon X5570 in all gaming tests too.

When comparing these CPUs we notice that they have the same number of cores but the Ryzen 5 3500U has more threads. Our comparison shows that the Xeon X5570 has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Ryzen 5 3500U. Despite this, the Ryzen 5 3500U has a slightly higher turbo speed. A Ryzen 5 3500U CPU outputs less heat than a Xeon X5570 CPU because of its significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption. The cache sizes of these CPUs are different. Indeed, the Ryzen 5 3500U has significantly more L2 cache than the Xeon X5570. Despite this, the Xeon X5570 has significantly more L3 cache compared to the Ryzen 5 3500U.

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 3500U has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
