Core i3-7100 vs Xeon X5470 benchmarks
Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Core i3-7100 performs better than the Xeon X5470. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Xeon X5470 in all gaming tests too.
When comparing core counts for these CPUs, we notice that the Xeon X5470 has significantly more cores with 4 cores compared to the Core i3-7100 that has 2 cores. But they both have the same number of threads. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Core i3-7100 has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Xeon X5470. A Core i3-7100 CPU outputs less heat than a Xeon X5470 CPU because of its significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption. The cache sizes of these CPUs are different. Indeed, the Xeon X5470 has significantly more L2 cache than the Core i3-7100
Modern CPUs generally have more logical cores than physical cores, this means that each core is split into multiple virtual cores, improving efficiency for parallel workloads. Indeed, the Core i3-7100 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
