Xeon E3-1226 v3 vs Ryzen 5 7520U benchmarks

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Ryzen 5 7520U is faster than the Xeon E3-1226 v3. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Xeon E3-1226 v3 in all gaming tests too.

Info from our database shows that they both have the same core count but the Ryzen 5 7520U has more threads. Our comparison shows that the Xeon E3-1226 v3 has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Ryzen 5 7520U. Despite this, the Ryzen 5 7520U has a slightly higher turbo speed. The Ryzen 5 7520U outputs less heat than Xeon E3-1226 v3 thanks to a significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption.

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. For instance, the Xeon E3-1226 v3 has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
