Ryzen 7 6800H vs Xeon E5-2697A v4 benchmarks

In our benchmarks, the Xeon E5-2697A v4 beats the Ryzen 7 6800H in overall performance. Despite this, the Ryzen 7 6800H has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

When comparing core counts for these CPUs, we notice that the Xeon E5-2697A v4 has significantly more cores with 16 cores compared to the Ryzen 7 6800H that has 8 cores. It also has more threads than the Ryzen 7 6800H. With our hardware info, we find that the Ryzen 7 6800H has a slightly higher clock speed than the Xeon E5-2697A v4. Also, the Ryzen 7 6800H has a slightly higher turbo speed. A Ryzen 7 6800H CPU outputs less heat than a Xeon E5-2697A v4 CPU because of its significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption. When comparing cache sizes, these CPUs have an identical amount of L2 cache. The Xeon E5-2697A v4 also has significantly more L3 cache.

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 6800H has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
