Ryzen 7 7800X3D vs Xeon Gold 6254 specs and performance

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Xeon Gold 6254 is faster than the Ryzen 7 7800X3D. Despite this, the Ryzen 7 7800X3D has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

When comparing core counts for these CPUs, we notice that the Xeon Gold 6254 has significantly more cores with 12 cores compared to the Ryzen 7 7800X3D that has 8 cores. Despite this, the Ryzen 7 7800X3D has more threads than the Xeon Gold 6254. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Ryzen 7 7800X3D has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Xeon Gold 6254. Also, the Ryzen 7 7800X3D has a slightly higher turbo speed. A Ryzen 7 7800X3D CPU outputs less heat than a Xeon Gold 6254 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 7800X3D has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
