Ryzen 7 3700U vs Xeon E5-620 specs and performance

In our benchmarks, the Xeon E5-620 beats the Ryzen 7 3700U in overall performance. Despite this, the Ryzen 7 3700U has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

Our spec comparison shows that they have an identical amount of cores 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 3700U. A Ryzen 7 3700U 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 cache sizes of these CPUs are different. Indeed, the Ryzen 7 3700U has significantly more L2 cache than the Xeon E5-620. The Ryzen 7 3700U also has significantly more L3 cache.

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 7 3700U has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
