Xeon E5-2670 v3 vs Ryzen 5 6600H benchmarks

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Ryzen 5 6600H 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.

With info from our database, we find that the Xeon E5-2670 v3 has significantly more cores with 12 cores whereas the Ryzen 5 6600H has 6 cores. It also has more threads than the Ryzen 5 6600H. With our hardware info, we find that the Ryzen 5 6600H has a significantly higher clock speed than the Xeon E5-2670 v3. Also, the Ryzen 5 6600H has a significantly higher turbo speed. The Ryzen 5 6600H outputs less heat than Xeon E5-2670 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 E5-2670 v3 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
