Core i5-4670S vs Xeon E5-430 benchmarks

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Xeon E5-430 is faster than the Core i5-4670S. Despite this, the Core i5-4670S has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

Our spec comparison shows that they have an identical amount of cores and the same number of threads. Our comparison shows that the Core i5-4670S has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Xeon E5-430. A Core i5-4670S CPU outputs less heat than a Xeon E5-430 CPU because of its 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 i5-4670S has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
