Ryzen 7 4700G vs Xeon E5-2690 v4 specs and performance

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Ryzen 7 4700G performs better than the Xeon E5-2690 v4. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Xeon E5-2690 v4 in all gaming tests too.

With info from our database, we find that the Xeon E5-2690 v4 has significantly more cores with 14 cores whereas the Ryzen 7 4700G has 8 cores. It also has more threads than the Ryzen 7 4700G. Our comparison shows that the Ryzen 7 4700G has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Xeon E5-2690 v4. Also, the Ryzen 7 4700G has a slightly higher turbo speed. A Ryzen 7 4700G CPU outputs less heat than a Xeon E5-2690 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.
