Ryzen 9 4900HS vs Xeon E5-2687W v4 comparison

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Xeon E5-2687W v4 is faster than the Ryzen 9 4900HS. Despite this, the Ryzen 9 4900HS has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

In terms of the number of cores of each of these CPUs, the Xeon E5-2687W v4 has significantly more cores than the Ryzen 9 4900HS. Indeed, the Xeon E5-2687W v4 has 12 cores compared to 8 cores found in the Ryzen 9 4900HS. It also has more threads than the Ryzen 9 4900HS. With our hardware info, we find that the Xeon E5-2687W v4 has a slightly higher clock speed than the Ryzen 9 4900HS. Despite this, the Ryzen 9 4900HS has a slightly higher turbo speed. A Ryzen 9 4900HS CPU outputs less heat than a Xeon E5-2687W v4 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 9 4900HS has slightly more L2 cache than the Xeon E5-2687W v4. Despite this, the Xeon E5-2687W v4 has significantly more L3 cache compared to the Ryzen 9 4900HS.

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 9 4900HS has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
