Ryzen 7 2700U vs Xeon E5-620 benchmarks

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Ryzen 7 2700U performs better than the Xeon E5-620. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Xeon E5-620 in all gaming tests too.

Info from our database shows that they both have the same core count and the same number of threads. Our comparison shows that the Xeon E5-620 has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Ryzen 7 2700U. Despite this, the Ryzen 7 2700U has a much higher turbo speed. A Ryzen 7 2700U CPU outputs less heat than a Xeon E5-620 CPU because of its significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption. The info from our database shows that the Ryzen 7 2700U has more L2 cache than the Xeon E5-620. The Ryzen 7 2700U also has significantly more L3 cache.

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 7 2700U has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
