Core i5-4670K vs Xeon E3-1245 v3 benchmarks

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Xeon E3-1245 v3 is faster than the Core i5-4670K. Despite this, the Core i5-4670K has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

Info from our database shows that they both have the same core count but the Xeon E3-1245 v3 has more threads. With our hardware info, we find that the Core i5-4670K has a slightly higher clock speed than the Xeon E3-1245 v3. In addition, both chips have the same turbo speed. 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.

The more cores a CPU has, the better the overall performance will be in parallel workloads such as multitasking. Many CPUs have more threads than cores, this means that each physical core is split into multiple logical cores, making them more efficient. For instance, the Core i5-4670K has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
