Xeon E5-2665 vs Ryzen 7 8840HS comparison

In our benchmarks, the Ryzen 7 8840HS beats the Xeon E5-2665 in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Xeon E5-2665 in all gaming tests too.

When comparing these CPUs we notice that they have the same number of cores and the same number of threads. With our hardware info, we find that the Ryzen 7 8840HS has a slightly higher clock speed than the Xeon E5-2665. Also, the Ryzen 7 8840HS has a significantly higher turbo speed. The Ryzen 7 8840HS outputs less heat than Xeon E5-2665 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 E5-2665 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
