Intel Core i5-8300H vs Intel Xeon E3-1535M v6

Core i5-8300H vs Xeon E3-1535M v6 benchmarks

In our benchmarks, the Xeon E3-1535M v6 beats the Core i5-8300H in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i5-8300H in all gaming tests too.

Info from our database shows that they both have the same core count and the same number of threads. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Xeon E3-1535M v6 has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i5-8300H. Also, the Xeon E3-1535M v6 has a slightly higher 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. When comparing cache sizes, these CPUs have an identical amount of L2 cache. The Core i5-8300H also has significantly more L3 cache.

Modern CPUs generally have more logical cores than physical cores, this means that each core is split into multiple virtual cores, improving efficiency for parallel workloads. Indeed, the Core i5-8300H has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
