Ryzen 7 5700U vs Xeon E5-2670 v3 specs and performance

In our benchmarks, the Xeon E5-2670 v3 beats the Ryzen 7 5700U in overall performance. Despite this, the Ryzen 7 5700U has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

When comparing core counts for these CPUs, we notice that the Xeon E5-2670 v3 has significantly more cores with 12 cores compared to the Ryzen 7 5700U that has 8 cores. It also has more threads than the Ryzen 7 5700U. With our hardware info, we find that the Xeon E5-2670 v3 has a slightly higher clock speed than the Ryzen 7 5700U. Despite this, the Ryzen 7 5700U has a slightly higher turbo speed. A Ryzen 7 5700U CPU outputs less heat than a Xeon E5-2670 v3 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 5700U has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
