Ryzen 7 5700U vs Xeon E5-2690 benchmarks

In our benchmarks, the Ryzen 7 5700U beats the Xeon E5-2690 in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Xeon E5-2690 in all gaming tests too.

When comparing these CPUs we notice that they have the same number of cores and the same number of threads. Our comparison shows that the Xeon E5-2690 has a significantly higher clock speed compared to 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 E5-2690 CPU because of its significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption.

The more cores a CPU has, the better the overall performance will be in parallel workloads such as multitasking. Many CPUs have more threads than cores, this means that each physical core is split into multiple logical cores, making them more efficient. Indeed, the Ryzen 7 5700U has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
