Xeon E3-1240 v3 vs Ryzen 5 PRO 3500U comparison

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Xeon E3-1240 v3 is faster than the Ryzen 5 PRO 3500U. Despite this, the Ryzen 5 PRO 3500U has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

Our spec comparison shows that they have an identical amount of cores and the same number of threads. With our hardware info, we find that the Xeon E3-1240 v3 has a significantly higher clock speed than the Ryzen 5 PRO 3500U. Also, the Xeon E3-1240 v3 has a slightly higher turbo speed. The Ryzen 5 PRO 3500U outputs less heat than Xeon E3-1240 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 E3-1240 v3 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
