Xeon E5-2470 v2 vs Ryzen 5 6600H specs and performance

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Ryzen 5 6600H is faster than the Xeon E5-2470 v2. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Xeon E5-2470 v2 in all gaming tests too.

When comparing core counts for these CPUs, we notice that the Xeon E5-2470 v2 has significantly more cores with 10 cores compared to the Ryzen 5 6600H that has 6 cores. It also has more threads than the Ryzen 5 6600H. With our hardware info, we find that the Ryzen 5 6600H has a slightly higher clock speed than the Xeon E5-2470 v2. Also, the Ryzen 5 6600H has a slightly higher turbo speed. The Ryzen 5 6600H outputs less heat than Xeon E5-2470 v2 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 E5-2470 v2 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
