Xeon E5-1660 v4 vs Ryzen 5 PRO 4650U comparison

In our benchmarks, the Xeon E5-1660 v4 beats the Ryzen 5 PRO 4650U in overall performance. Despite this, the Ryzen 5 PRO 4650U has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

When comparing core counts for these CPUs, we notice that the Xeon E5-1660 v4 has slightly more cores with 8 cores compared to the Ryzen 5 PRO 4650U that has 6 cores. It also has more threads than the Ryzen 5 PRO 4650U. With our hardware info, we find that the Xeon E5-1660 v4 has a significantly higher clock speed than the Ryzen 5 PRO 4650U. The Ryzen 5 PRO 4650U outputs less heat than Xeon E5-1660 v4 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 E5-1660 v4 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
