Xeon E5-2697A v4 vs Ryzen 9 8940HX benchmarks
Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Ryzen 9 8940HX performs better than the Xeon E5-2697A v4. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Xeon E5-2697A v4 in all gaming tests too.
Our spec comparison shows that they have an identical amount of cores and the same number of threads. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Ryzen 9 8940HX has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Xeon E5-2697A v4. Also, the Ryzen 9 8940HX has a significantly higher turbo speed. The Ryzen 9 8940HX outputs less heat than Xeon E5-2697A v4 thanks to a significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption. The data shows that both these CPUs have same sized L2 caches. The Xeon E5-2697A v4 also has significantly more L3 cache.
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 E5-2697A v4 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
