Ryzen 7 4700U vs Xeon X5680 comparison
In our benchmarks, the Ryzen 7 4700U beats the Xeon X5680 in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Xeon X5680 in all gaming tests too.
When comparing core counts for these CPUs, we notice that the Ryzen 7 4700U has slightly more cores with 8 cores compared to the Xeon X5680 that has 6 cores. Despite this, the Xeon X5680 has more threads than the Ryzen 7 4700U. With our hardware info, we find that the Xeon X5680 has a significantly higher clock speed than the Ryzen 7 4700U. Despite this, the Ryzen 7 4700U has a slightly higher turbo speed. A Ryzen 7 4700U CPU outputs less heat than a Xeon X5680 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 4700U has significantly more L2 cache than the Xeon X5680. The Ryzen 7 4700U also has significantly more L3 cache.
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. For instance, the Ryzen 7 4700U has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
