Xeon E5-2640 v3 vs Ryzen 5 PRO 5675U benchmarks

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Xeon E5-2640 v3 performs better than the Ryzen 5 PRO 5675U. Despite this, the Ryzen 5 PRO 5675U has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

With info from our database, we find that the Xeon E5-2640 v3 has slightly more cores with 8 cores whereas the Ryzen 5 PRO 5675U has 6 cores. It also has more threads than the Ryzen 5 PRO 5675U. Our comparison shows that the Xeon E5-2640 v3 has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Ryzen 5 PRO 5675U. Despite this, the Ryzen 5 PRO 5675U has a slightly higher turbo speed. The Ryzen 5 PRO 5675U outputs less heat than Xeon E5-2640 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 E5-2640 v3 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
