Xeon E5-1603 v3 vs Celeron G6900 specs and performance

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Xeon E5-1603 v3 is faster than the Celeron G6900. Despite this, the Celeron G6900 has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

In terms of the number of cores of each of these CPUs, the Xeon E5-1603 v3 has significantly more cores than the Celeron G6900. Indeed, the Xeon E5-1603 v3 has 4 cores compared to 2 cores found in the Celeron G6900. It also has more threads than the Celeron G6900. The Celeron G6900 outputs less heat than Xeon E5-1603 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 E5-1603 v3 has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
