Xeon E5-1620 v3 vs Ryzen 5 PRO 7530U benchmarks

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Ryzen 5 PRO 7530U performs better than the Xeon E5-1620 v3. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Xeon E5-1620 v3 in all gaming tests too.

When comparing core counts for these CPUs, we notice that the Ryzen 5 PRO 7530U has significantly more cores with 6 cores compared to the Xeon E5-1620 v3 that has 4 cores. It also has more threads than the Xeon E5-1620 v3. With our hardware info, we find that the Xeon E5-1620 v3 has a significantly higher clock speed than the Ryzen 5 PRO 7530U. Despite this, the Ryzen 5 PRO 7530U has a slightly higher turbo speed. The Ryzen 5 PRO 7530U 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.

Most CPUs have more threads than cores. This technology, colloquially called hyperthreading, improves performance by splitting a core into multiple virtual ones. This provides more efficient utilisation of a core. Indeed, the Xeon E5-1620 v3 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
