Xeon X5647 vs Ryzen 5 PRO 1500 benchmarks

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Ryzen 5 PRO 1500 is faster than the Xeon X5647. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Xeon X5647 in all gaming tests too.

Info from our database shows that they both have the same core count and the same number of threads. Our comparison shows that the Ryzen 5 PRO 1500 has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Xeon X5647. Also, the Ryzen 5 PRO 1500 has a slightly higher turbo speed. The Ryzen 5 PRO 1500 outputs less heat than Xeon X5647 thanks to a significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption. In terms of cache, the Ryzen 5 PRO 1500 has significantly more L2 cache when compared to the Xeon X5647. The Ryzen 5 PRO 1500 also has slightly more L3 cache.

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 X5647 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
