Intel Core i5-10500 vs Intel Xeon E5-2630 v4

Core i5-10500 vs Xeon E5-2630 v4 benchmarks

In our benchmarks, the Core i5-10500 beats the Xeon E5-2630 v4 in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Xeon E5-2630 v4 in all gaming tests too.

In terms of the number of cores of each of these CPUs, the Xeon E5-2630 v4 has significantly more cores than the Core i5-10500. Indeed, the Xeon E5-2630 v4 has 10 cores compared to 6 cores found in the Core i5-10500. It also has more threads than the Core i5-10500. With our hardware info, we find that the Core i5-10500 has a slightly higher clock speed than the Xeon E5-2630 v4. Also, the Core i5-10500 has a significantly higher turbo speed. A Core i5-10500 CPU outputs less heat than a Xeon E5-2630 v4 CPU because of its slightly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption.

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 i5-10500 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
