Ryzen 7 5800U vs Xeon E5-2687W v3 benchmarks

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Ryzen 7 5800U performs better than the Xeon E5-2687W v3. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Xeon E5-2687W v3 in all gaming tests too.

In terms of the number of cores of each of these CPUs, the Xeon E5-2687W v3 has slightly more cores than the Ryzen 7 5800U. Indeed, the Xeon E5-2687W v3 has 10 cores compared to 8 cores found in the Ryzen 7 5800U. It also has more threads than the Ryzen 7 5800U. Our comparison shows that the Xeon E5-2687W v3 has a significantly 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 E5-2687W v3 CPU because of its significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption. The cache sizes of these CPUs are different. Indeed, the Ryzen 7 5800U has significantly more L2 cache than the Xeon E5-2687W v3. Despite this, the Xeon E5-2687W v3 has significantly more L3 cache compared to the Ryzen 7 5800U.

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.
