AMD Ryzen 5 4600U vs Intel Xeon E5-1650 v4

Ryzen 5 4600U vs Xeon E5-1650 v4 specs and performance

In our benchmarks, the Xeon E5-1650 v4 beats the Ryzen 5 4600U in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Ryzen 5 4600U 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 Xeon E5-1650 v4 has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the Ryzen 5 4600U. Furthermore, both these CPUs have identical turbo speeds. A Ryzen 5 4600U CPU outputs less heat than a Xeon E5-1650 v4 CPU because of its significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption.

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 4600U has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
