Ryzen 7 5700 vs Xeon Gold 6138 specs and performance

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Ryzen 7 5700 performs better than the Xeon Gold 6138. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Xeon Gold 6138 in all gaming tests too.

With info from our database, we find that the Xeon Gold 6138 has significantly more cores with 20 cores whereas the Ryzen 7 5700 has 8 cores. It also has more threads than the Ryzen 7 5700. Our comparison shows that the Ryzen 7 5700 has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the Xeon Gold 6138. Also, the Ryzen 7 5700 has a slightly higher turbo speed. A Ryzen 7 5700 CPU outputs less heat than a Xeon Gold 6138 CPU because of its significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption. The info from our database shows that the Xeon Gold 6138 has more L2 cache than the Ryzen 7 5700. The Xeon Gold 6138 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. Indeed, the Ryzen 7 5700 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
