Xeon E5-2698 v3 vs Ryzen AI 5 340 specs and performance

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Xeon E5-2698 v3 is faster than the Ryzen AI 5 340. Despite this, the Ryzen AI 5 340 has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

When comparing core counts for these CPUs, we notice that the Xeon E5-2698 v3 has significantly more cores with 16 cores compared to the Ryzen AI 5 340 that has 6 cores. It also has more threads than the Ryzen AI 5 340. Our comparison shows that the Xeon E5-2698 v3 has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Ryzen AI 5 340. Despite this, the Ryzen AI 5 340 has a slightly higher turbo speed. The Ryzen AI 5 340 outputs less heat than Xeon E5-2698 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 E5-2698 v3 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
