AMD Ryzen 7 5800H vs Intel Xeon E5-2689

Ryzen 7 5800H vs Xeon E5-2689 benchmarks

In our benchmarks, the Ryzen 7 5800H beats the Xeon E5-2689 in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Xeon E5-2689 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. A Ryzen 7 5800H CPU outputs less heat than a Xeon E5-2689 CPU because of its significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption.

Modern CPUs generally have more logical cores than physical cores, this means that each core is split into multiple virtual cores, improving efficiency for parallel workloads. Indeed, the Ryzen 7 5800H has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
