Intel Core i5-10300H vs Intel Xeon E5-2630 v4

Core i5-10300H vs Xeon E5-2630 v4 comparison

In our benchmarks, the Xeon E5-2630 v4 beats the Core i5-10300H in overall performance. Despite this, the Core i5-10300H has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

In terms of the number of cores of each of these CPUs, the Xeon E5-2630 v4 has significantly more cores than the Core i5-10300H. Indeed, the Xeon E5-2630 v4 has 10 cores compared to 4 cores found in the Core i5-10300H. It also has more threads than the Core i5-10300H. Our comparison shows that the Core i5-10300H has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Xeon E5-2630 v4. Also, the Core i5-10300H has a significantly higher turbo speed. A Core i5-10300H CPU outputs less heat than a Xeon E5-2630 v4 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 i5-10300H has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
