Summary benchmark resultsAs a percentage of the maximum value based on a sample from the entire base of all processors
Processor Benchmark
| EPYC 9254 | 66% |
Xeon E5-2680R v4 | 55% |
This parameter shows the performance of the processors in single-threaded and multi-threaded mode. In this comparison, EPYC 9254 is 16% better than Xeon E5-2680R v4. The data source is several popular tests. Detailed information can be found below.
Gaming performance
Summary result of all game benchmarks.| EPYC 9254 | 70% |
Xeon E5-2680R v4 | 56% |
The maximum result in this parameter is 100 percent, which is the performance of the most powerful processor currently available. And it is clear that this is a server processor, on which no one will play games. Because the cost of this processor reaches several tens of thousands of dollars. Therefore, if you think that the selected CPU has a low game result, look at the FPS that it produces in real games in the final table below.
List of less popular games in which processors were compared: Control, Metro Exodus, Hitman 3, Resident Evil 7 Biohazard, Forza Horizon 4, Shadow of the Tomb Raider, DOTA 2A, The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, Monster Hunter World, League of Legends (LOL), Horizon Zero Dawn, PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds (PUBG), Counter-Strike: Global Offensive (CS GO), Microsoft Flight Simulator, Battlefield V, Half-Life: Alyx, NBA 2K20, Ghostrunner.
Gaming benchmark| Fortnite | 124.2 | 99.4 | | Valorant | 141.2 | 112.9 | | Cyberpunk 2077 | 79.1 | 63.3 | | Apex Legends | 132.7 | 106.2 | | Call of Duty Warzone | 105.9 | 84.7 | | Overwatch | 114.3 | 91.5 | | Red Dead Redemption 2 | 97.4 | 77.9 | | DOOM Eternal | 70.6 | 56.5 | | Warzone | 110.1 | 88.1 | | Assassin's Creed | 118.6 | 94.9 | | Valheim | 117.2 | 93.7 |
The numbers in this table indicate the maximum FPS that was received on the device with the corresponding processor. Depending on the configuration of the computer (RAM size and Video Card) and graphics quality settings (Ultra, Medium, Normal), the results may differ quite significantly. We recommend that you better study the results of the Cinebench, GeekBench and Passmark becnmarks.
The computers that were in the comparisons not only did they have different video cards and different amounts of RAM. But users also tested them at different screen resolutions: 2K, 4K or FullHD. So the game benchmark data is approximate. But all video cards met the average system requirements of games. You will get more accurate information about how powerful the processor will be in games, if you compare it in one assembly with the video card that is installed in your computer.
Power consumption
| EPYC 9254 | 29% |
Xeon E5-2680R v4 | 19% |
To make a finishing choice on which processor is better, you should also consider the generation of its core. The newer the processor generation, the better its performance in games and benchmarks, as well as its energy efficiency. In this case the EPYC 9254 is more energy efficient than the Xeon E5-2680R v4 as it consumes less power: 200W vs. 120W. Power consumption is especially important for laptops. Also, when choosing a processor cooling system, you must know its TDP. It is necessary to calculate so that the TDP data specified in the cooler specification is greater than the TDP of the compared processor.
Software benchmarksLet's say you plan to use the processor not only for gaming, but also for video rendering or video editing, machine learning, streaming, programming, then first of all you need to pay attention to the performance in multi-threaded mode. In this mode, the processor turns on all cores and threads that it has to the maximum to achieve maximum performance. You will find out this data from the benchmark tables below. Before using the data from these tests, be sure to find out whether the software that you are going to use on your computer can work in multi-threaded mode. Since there are still many programs that can use only one core to work, and all the benefit of multi-core mode turns out to be unnecessary.

Comparison of specifications
In the specification comparison table, the most helpful will be the release date of the processor and the possibility of overclocking it. The later the processor is released, the longer it will last in your computer. And the easier it will be to upgrade the system in the future. The same benefits from the presence of overclocking. When the processor can be overclocked, thereby increasing its performance, then it will continue to maintain maximum FPS in new games. Accordingly, you do not need to buy a new CPU to enjoy the games any longer. The savings are obvious!

Another difference is that EPYC 9254 has 10 more core than Xeon E5-2680R v4. Also keep in mind that high CPU frequency affects battery life through power consumption (relevant for laptops).
Result:
The number of parameters for which AMD EPYC 9254 is better: 29
The number of parameters for which Intel Xeon E5-2680R v4 is better: 5
Although it should be understood that all the number in the article above do not mean that taking them into account you should undividedly trust a simple comparison of these numbers. Be sure to watch the testing video and read the opinion of real owners of AMD EPYC 9254 and Intel Xeon E5-2680R v4 before making a choice which of the CPUs to buy for gaming.
