Xeon E5-2630 v2 vs Ryzen 7 PRO 2700U comparison

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Ryzen 7 PRO 2700U is faster than the Xeon E5-2630 v2. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Xeon E5-2630 v2 in all gaming tests too.

When comparing core counts for these CPUs, we notice that the Xeon E5-2630 v2 has significantly more cores with 6 cores compared to the Ryzen 7 PRO 2700U that has 4 cores. It also has more threads than the Ryzen 7 PRO 2700U. Our comparison shows that the Xeon E5-2630 v2 has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Ryzen 7 PRO 2700U. Despite this, the Ryzen 7 PRO 2700U has a slightly higher turbo speed. The Ryzen 7 PRO 2700U outputs less heat than Xeon E5-2630 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 E5-2630 v2 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
