Intel Core i5-11300H vs Intel Xeon E5-2687W

Core i5-11300H vs Xeon E5-2687W specs and performance

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Xeon E5-2687W is faster than the Core i5-11300H. Despite this, the Core i5-11300H has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

In terms of the number of cores of each of these CPUs, the Xeon E5-2687W has significantly more cores than the Core i5-11300H. Indeed, the Xeon E5-2687W has 8 cores compared to 4 cores found in the Core i5-11300H. It also has more threads than the Core i5-11300H. A Core i5-11300H CPU outputs less heat than a Xeon E5-2687W 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 i5-11300H has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
