Core i3-4150T vs Xeon W3520 comparison

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Core i3-4150T is faster than the Xeon W3520. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Xeon W3520 in all gaming tests too.

In terms of the number of cores of each of these CPUs, the Xeon W3520 has significantly more cores than the Core i3-4150T. Indeed, the Xeon W3520 has 4 cores compared to 2 cores found in the Core i3-4150T. But they both have the same number of threads. Our comparison shows that the Core i3-4150T has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Xeon W3520. A Core i3-4150T CPU outputs less heat than a Xeon W3520 CPU because of its significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption.

The more cores a CPU has, the better the overall performance will be in parallel workloads such as multitasking. Many CPUs have more threads than cores, this means that each physical core is split into multiple logical cores, making them more efficient. Indeed, the Core i3-4150T has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
