Ryzen 7 4700G vs Xeon E5-2680 v4 comparison

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Xeon E5-2680 v4 performs better than the Ryzen 7 4700G. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Ryzen 7 4700G in all gaming tests too.

When comparing core counts for these CPUs, we notice that the Xeon E5-2680 v4 has significantly more cores with 14 cores compared to the Ryzen 7 4700G that has 8 cores. It also has more threads than the Ryzen 7 4700G. With our hardware info, we find that the Ryzen 7 4700G has a significantly higher clock speed than the Xeon E5-2680 v4. Also, the Ryzen 7 4700G has a slightly higher turbo speed. A Ryzen 7 4700G CPU outputs less heat than a Xeon E5-2680 v4 CPU because of its significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption.

Most CPUs have more threads than cores. This technology, colloquially called hyperthreading, improves performance by splitting a core into multiple virtual ones. This provides more efficient utilisation of a core. Indeed, the Ryzen 7 4700G has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
