Intel Core i5-1155G7 vs Intel Xeon E5-1603 v3

Core i5-1155G7 vs Xeon E5-1603 v3 specs and performance

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Core i5-1155G7 is faster than the Xeon E5-1603 v3. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Xeon E5-1603 v3 in all gaming tests too.

When comparing these CPUs we notice that they have the same number of cores but the Core i5-1155G7 has more threads. A Core i5-1155G7 CPU outputs less heat than a Xeon E5-1603 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 i5-1155G7 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
