Core i5-6402P vs Xeon E5-430 specs and performance

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Xeon E5-430 is faster than the Core i5-6402P. Despite this, the Core i5-6402P has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

When comparing these CPUs we notice that they have the same number of cores and the same number of threads. With our hardware info, we find that the Core i5-6402P has a slightly higher clock speed than the Xeon E5-430. A Core i5-6402P 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. The info from our database shows that the Xeon E5-430 has more L2 cache than the Core i5-6402P

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 i5-6402P has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
