Xeon E5-2670 v3 vs EPYC 74F3 specs and performance
According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the EPYC 74F3 is faster than the Xeon E5-2670 v3. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Xeon E5-2670 v3 in all gaming tests too.
When comparing core counts for these CPUs, we notice that the Xeon E5-2670 v3 has slightly more cores with 12 cores compared to the EPYC 74F3 that has 9 cores. It also has more threads than the EPYC 74F3. Our comparison shows that the EPYC 74F3 has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Xeon E5-2670 v3. A Xeon E5-2670 v3 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.
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 E5-2670 v3 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
