Intel Core i5-4670K vs Intel Xeon X5650

Core i5-4670K vs Xeon X5650 specs and performance

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Core i5-4670K is faster than the Xeon X5650. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Xeon X5650 in all gaming tests too.

In terms of the number of cores of each of these CPUs, the Xeon X5650 has significantly more cores than the Core i5-4670K. Indeed, the Xeon X5650 has 6 cores compared to 4 cores found in the Core i5-4670K. It also has more threads than the Core i5-4670K. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Core i5-4670K has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Xeon X5650. Also, the Core i5-4670K has a slightly higher turbo speed. A Core i5-4670K CPU outputs less heat than a Xeon X5650 CPU because of its slightly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption. The cache sizes of these CPUs are different. Indeed, the Xeon X5650 has significantly more L2 cache than the Core i5-4670K. The Xeon X5650 also has significantly more L3 cache.

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 i5-4670K has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
