Intel Core i5-11400 vs Intel Xeon E5-2673 v3

Core i5-11400 vs Xeon E5-2673 v3 benchmarks

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Core i5-11400 is faster than the Xeon E5-2673 v3. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Xeon E5-2673 v3 in all gaming tests too.

In terms of the number of cores of each of these CPUs, the Xeon E5-2673 v3 has significantly more cores than the Core i5-11400. Indeed, the Xeon E5-2673 v3 has 12 cores compared to 6 cores found in the Core i5-11400. It also has more threads than the Core i5-11400. A Core i5-11400 CPU outputs less heat than a Xeon E5-2673 v3 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 i5-11400 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
