Xeon E5-2699 v3 vs Ryzen 5 6600H comparison
Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Xeon E5-2699 v3 performs better than the Ryzen 5 6600H. Despite this, the Ryzen 5 6600H has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.
When comparing core counts for these CPUs, we notice that the Xeon E5-2699 v3 has significantly more cores with 18 cores compared to the Ryzen 5 6600H that has 6 cores. It also has more threads than the Ryzen 5 6600H. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Ryzen 5 6600H has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the Xeon E5-2699 v3. Also, the Ryzen 5 6600H has a slightly higher turbo speed. The Ryzen 5 6600H outputs less heat than Xeon E5-2699 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 E5-2699 v3 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
