Core i5-4670 vs Xeon E3-1245 v3 benchmarks

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Xeon E3-1245 v3 performs better than the Core i5-4670. Despite this, the Core i5-4670 has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

Our spec comparison shows that they have an identical amount of cores but the Xeon E3-1245 v3 has more threads. According to our data, the Core i5-4670 and Xeon E3-1245 v3 have the same clock speed. Furthermore, both these CPUs have identical turbo speeds. Both these chips have an identical TDP (Thermal Design Power). This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption.

Modern CPUs generally have more logical cores than physical cores, this means that each core is split into multiple virtual cores, improving efficiency for parallel workloads. For instance, the Core i5-4670 has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
