Xeon E5-2667 v4 vs EPYC 74F3 benchmarks

In our benchmarks, the EPYC 74F3 beats the Xeon E5-2667 v4 in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Xeon E5-2667 v4 in all gaming tests too.

With info from our database, we find that the EPYC 74F3 has slightly more cores with 9 cores whereas the Xeon E5-2667 v4 has 8 cores. It also has more threads than the Xeon E5-2667 v4. Our comparison shows that the Xeon E5-2667 v4 has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the EPYC 74F3. A Xeon E5-2667 v4 CPU outputs less heat than a EPYC 74F3 CPU because of its 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 E5-2667 v4 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
