Ryzen 7 3700U vs Xeon E5-2650 specs and performance

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Xeon E5-2650 performs better than the Ryzen 7 3700U. Despite this, the Ryzen 7 3700U has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

With info from our database, we find that the Xeon E5-2650 has significantly more cores with 8 cores whereas the Ryzen 7 3700U has 4 cores. It also has more threads than the Ryzen 7 3700U. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Ryzen 7 3700U has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Xeon E5-2650. A Ryzen 7 3700U CPU outputs less heat than a Xeon E5-2650 CPU because of its significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption.

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 3700U has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
