Ryzen 7 3800X vs Xeon Gold 6128 benchmarks

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Xeon Gold 6128 performs better than the Ryzen 7 3800X. Despite this, the Ryzen 7 3800X has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

When comparing core counts for these CPUs, we notice that the Ryzen 7 3800X has slightly more cores with 8 cores compared to the Xeon Gold 6128 that has 6 cores. It also has more threads than the Xeon Gold 6128. Our comparison shows that the Ryzen 7 3800X has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Xeon Gold 6128. Also, the Ryzen 7 3800X has a slightly higher turbo speed. A Ryzen 7 3800X CPU outputs less heat than a Xeon Gold 6128 CPU because of its slightly 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 3800X has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
