Xeon E5-2699 v3 vs Xeon Silver 4210R comparison

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Xeon Silver 4210R performs better than the Xeon E5-2699 v3. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Xeon E5-2699 v3 in all gaming tests too.

With info from our database, we find that the Xeon E5-2699 v3 has significantly more cores with 18 cores whereas the Xeon Silver 4210R has 10 cores. It also has more threads than the Xeon Silver 4210R. With our hardware info, we find that the Xeon Silver 4210R has a slightly higher clock speed than the Xeon E5-2699 v3. Despite this, the Xeon E5-2699 v3 has a slightly higher turbo speed. The Xeon Silver 4210R 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.
