Xeon E5-2640 v3 vs Ryzen 7 6800HS comparison

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Xeon E5-2640 v3 performs better than the Ryzen 7 6800HS. Despite this, the Ryzen 7 6800HS 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. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Ryzen 7 6800HS has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Xeon E5-2640 v3. Also, the Ryzen 7 6800HS has a slightly higher turbo speed. The Ryzen 7 6800HS 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.
