Xeon E5-1650 v3 vs Ryzen 5 240 benchmarks
Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Ryzen 5 240 performs better than the Xeon E5-1650 v3. Despite this, the Xeon E5-1650 v3 has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.
When comparing these CPUs we notice that they have the same number of cores and the same number of threads. Our comparison shows that the Ryzen 5 240 has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Xeon E5-1650 v3. Also, the Ryzen 5 240 has a slightly higher turbo speed. The Ryzen 5 240 outputs less heat than Xeon E5-1650 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 E5-1650 v3 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
