Are Intel Xeon Really Suitable for Gaming?

So me and my friend we use Fujitsu PC with Intel Xeon processor, and the rumors that Intel Xeon is not suitable for gaming, we absolutely can't confirm. Many games run smoothly with 60 FPS such as Rocket League, Fortnite, Minecraft, Game Cube games, etc… My friend is just as satisfied with his Intel Xeon PC as I'm.

So therefore I don't understand why you have to get a Ryzon or i7 for more expensive PCs for gaming? Because with us, Intel Xeon performed well in many games with GTX 1650 and RX580.

Of course you can use a Xeon and compare it with an i7 that runs at the same clock rate. But since Xeons have a significantly lower standard clock rate than an i7, an i7 will still deliver better gaming performance than the Xeon.

Xeon CPUs are significantly more expensive than your consumer friends. Only the V3 series had a good price ratio, everything that follows is not really relevant for gamers because the mainboards are far too expensive.

Bu

Yes, that's right, but since the Xeon has bored all games with us so far, there's still no reason for us to buy an i7.

Ha

Sure, it works, but compare a Xeon E2233 for 305 euro with a Ryzen 5 3600 for 170 euro and the mainboard for the Xeon is easily twice as expensive as the Ryzen…

Not really a good price-performance ratio

Bu

Well, the price performance doesn't matter to us. The main thing is that this PC only cost 200 euro on eBay, which is good for gaming.

Ni

How should it be otherwise? He has a 1650 as a graphics card.

It's not an art either, the games run on a toaster themselves

Bu

Great, then Minecraft Raytracing Ultra Shader with 2048x2048 Texture Pack with 1000 Mods would also run on cheap 7 inch Intel Atom processor tablet?

Depends on the Xeon.

Ryzen CPUs are not that expensive. Xeons are your mostly more expensive than a comparable i-series cpu from Intel.

They are often used cheaply, but also other CPUs.

Of course not

Bu

Well, every game doesn't work on the toaster.

Soon GTX 1660 Super
