Intel Core i3-9100 vs Intel Xeon E5-2643

Core i3-9100 vs Xeon E5-2643 benchmarks

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Xeon E5-2643 performs better than the Core i3-9100. Despite this, the Core i3-9100 has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

When comparing these CPUs we notice that they have the same number of cores but the Xeon E5-2643 has more threads. Our comparison shows that the Core i3-9100 has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Xeon E5-2643. Also, the Core i3-9100 has a slightly higher turbo speed. A Core i3-9100 CPU outputs less heat than a Xeon E5-2643 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. For instance, the Core i3-9100 has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
