Ryzen 7 5800U vs Xeon E5-2640 v3 specs and performance
In our benchmarks, the Ryzen 7 5800U beats the Xeon E5-2640 v3 in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Xeon E5-2640 v3 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 E5-2640 v3 has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Ryzen 7 5800U. Despite this, the Ryzen 7 5800U has a slightly higher turbo speed. A Ryzen 7 5800U CPU outputs less heat than a Xeon E5-2640 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 5800U has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
