Core i5-7400 vs Xeon E5-2667 v4 specs and performance

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Xeon E5-2667 v4 is faster than the Core i5-7400. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i5-7400 in all gaming tests too.

In terms of the number of cores of each of these CPUs, the Xeon E5-2667 v4 has significantly more cores than the Core i5-7400. Indeed, the Xeon E5-2667 v4 has 8 cores compared to 4 cores found in the Core i5-7400. It also has more threads than the Core i5-7400. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Xeon E5-2667 v4 has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i5-7400. Also, the Xeon E5-2667 v4 has a slightly higher turbo speed. A Core i5-7400 CPU outputs less heat than a Xeon E5-2667 v4 CPU because of its significantly 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 i5-7400 has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
