Xeon E3-1230 v3 vs Ryzen 7 PRO 2700U benchmarks

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Ryzen 7 PRO 2700U is faster than the Xeon E3-1230 v3. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Xeon E3-1230 v3 in all gaming tests too.

Our spec comparison shows that they have an identical amount of cores and the same number of threads. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Xeon E3-1230 v3 has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the Ryzen 7 PRO 2700U. Despite this, the Ryzen 7 PRO 2700U has a slightly higher turbo speed. The Ryzen 7 PRO 2700U outputs less heat than Xeon E3-1230 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. Indeed, the Xeon E3-1230 v3 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
