Core i5-3470 vs Xeon E3-1225 V2 specs and performance

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Core i5-3470 performs better than the Xeon E3-1225 V2. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Xeon E3-1225 V2 in all gaming tests too.

Our spec comparison shows that they have an identical amount of cores and the same number of threads. Our comparison shows that the Core i5-3470 has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Xeon E3-1225 V2.

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. For instance, the Core i5-3470 has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
