Intel Core i5-11400T vs Intel Xeon E5-2620

Core i5-11400T vs Xeon E5-2620 specs and performance

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Core i5-11400T performs better than the Xeon E5-2620. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Xeon E5-2620 in all gaming tests too.

Info from our database shows that they both have the same core count and the same number of threads. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Xeon E5-2620 has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the Core i5-11400T. Despite this, the Core i5-11400T has a significantly higher turbo speed. A Core i5-11400T CPU outputs less heat than a Xeon E5-2620 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 i5-11400T has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
