Xeon E5-2660 v3 vs Ryzen 5 PRO 4650U benchmarks

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Ryzen 5 PRO 4650U is faster than the Xeon E5-2660 v3. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Xeon E5-2660 v3 in all gaming tests too.

When comparing core counts for these CPUs, we notice that the Xeon E5-2660 v3 has significantly more cores with 10 cores compared to the Ryzen 5 PRO 4650U that has 6 cores. It also has more threads than the Ryzen 5 PRO 4650U. Our comparison shows that the Xeon E5-2660 v3 has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Ryzen 5 PRO 4650U. The Ryzen 5 PRO 4650U outputs less heat than Xeon E5-2660 v3 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 E5-2660 v3 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
