Ryzen 7 2700X vs Xeon E5-2687W v4 specs and performance
Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Xeon E5-2687W v4 performs better than the Ryzen 7 2700X. Despite this, the Ryzen 7 2700X has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.
When comparing core counts for these CPUs, we notice that the Xeon E5-2687W v4 has significantly more cores with 12 cores compared to the Ryzen 7 2700X that has 8 cores. It also has more threads than the Ryzen 7 2700X. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Ryzen 7 2700X has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Xeon E5-2687W v4. Also, the Ryzen 7 2700X has a slightly higher turbo speed. A Ryzen 7 2700X CPU outputs less heat than a Xeon E5-2687W v4 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 7 2700X has slightly more L2 cache than the Xeon E5-2687W v4. Despite this, the Xeon E5-2687W v4 has significantly more L3 cache compared to the Ryzen 7 2700X.
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 2700X has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
