Ryzen 7 8700G vs Xeon Gold 6140 benchmarks

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Ryzen 7 8700G is faster than the Xeon Gold 6140. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Xeon Gold 6140 in all gaming tests too.

In terms of the number of cores of each of these CPUs, the Xeon Gold 6140 has significantly more cores than the Ryzen 7 8700G. Indeed, the Xeon Gold 6140 has 18 cores compared to 8 cores found in the Ryzen 7 8700G. It also has more threads than the Ryzen 7 8700G. With our hardware info, we find that the Ryzen 7 8700G has a significantly higher clock speed than the Xeon Gold 6140. Also, the Ryzen 7 8700G has a slightly higher turbo speed. A Ryzen 7 8700G CPU outputs less heat than a Xeon Gold 6140 CPU because of its significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption. In terms of cache, the Xeon Gold 6140 has significantly more L2 cache when compared to the Ryzen 7 8700G. The Xeon Gold 6140 also has significantly more L3 cache.

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 8700G has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
