Intel Core i5-10200H vs Intel Xeon E5-2650 v2

Core i5-10200H vs Xeon E5-2650 v2 specs and performance

In our benchmarks, the Xeon E5-2650 v2 beats the Core i5-10200H in overall performance. Despite this, the Core i5-10200H has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

When comparing core counts for these CPUs, we notice that the Xeon E5-2650 v2 has significantly more cores with 8 cores compared to the Core i5-10200H that has 4 cores. It also has more threads than the Core i5-10200H. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Xeon E5-2650 v2 has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i5-10200H. Despite this, the Core i5-10200H has a slightly higher turbo speed. A Core i5-10200H CPU outputs less heat than a Xeon E5-2650 v2 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 i5-10200H has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
