Intel Core i3-1125G4 vs Intel Xeon E5-2690

Core i3-1125G4 vs Xeon E5-2690 comparison

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Xeon E5-2690 is faster than the Core i3-1125G4. Despite this, the Core i3-1125G4 has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

In terms of the number of cores of each of these CPUs, the Xeon E5-2690 has significantly more cores than the Core i3-1125G4. Indeed, the Xeon E5-2690 has 8 cores compared to 4 cores found in the Core i3-1125G4. It also has more threads than the Core i3-1125G4. A Core i3-1125G4 CPU outputs less heat than a Xeon E5-2690 CPU because of its 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 Core i3-1125G4 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
