Ryzen 9 3950X vs Xeon Gold 6230 comparison
According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Ryzen 9 3950X is faster than the Xeon Gold 6230. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Xeon Gold 6230 in all gaming tests too.
In terms of the number of cores of each of these CPUs, the Xeon Gold 6230 has slightly more cores than the Ryzen 9 3950X. Indeed, the Xeon Gold 6230 has 20 cores compared to 16 cores found in the Ryzen 9 3950X. It also has more threads than the Ryzen 9 3950X. With our hardware info, we find that the Ryzen 9 3950X has a significantly higher clock speed than the Xeon Gold 6230. Also, the Ryzen 9 3950X has a slightly higher turbo speed. A Ryzen 9 3950X CPU outputs less heat than a Xeon Gold 6230 CPU because of its slightly 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 Xeon Gold 6230 has significantly more L2 cache than the Ryzen 9 3950X. Despite this, the Ryzen 9 3950X has significantly more L3 cache compared to the Xeon Gold 6230.
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 9 3950X has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
