Core i5-4570 vs Xeon E5-620 benchmarks

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Xeon E5-620 is faster than the Core i5-4570. Despite this, the Core i5-4570 has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

When comparing these CPUs we notice that they have the same number of cores but the Xeon E5-620 has more threads. With our hardware info, we find that the Core i5-4570 has a slightly higher clock speed than the Xeon E5-620. Also, the Core i5-4570 has a slightly higher turbo speed. The Xeon E5-620 outputs less heat than Core i5-4570 thanks to a slightly 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. For instance, the Core i5-4570 has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
