Xeon E5-1620 v3 vs Ryzen 5 PRO 3500U comparison

In our benchmarks, the Xeon E5-1620 v3 beats the Ryzen 5 PRO 3500U in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Ryzen 5 PRO 3500U in all gaming tests too.

Info from our database shows that they both have the same core count and the same number of threads. Our comparison shows that the Xeon E5-1620 v3 has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the Ryzen 5 PRO 3500U. Despite this, the Ryzen 5 PRO 3500U has a slightly higher turbo speed. The Ryzen 5 PRO 3500U outputs less heat than Xeon E5-1620 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 E5-1620 v3 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
