Intel Core i5-8350U vs Intel Xeon E3-1245 v5

Core i5-8350U vs Xeon E3-1245 v5 specs and performance

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Xeon E3-1245 v5 is faster than the Core i5-8350U. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i5-8350U in all gaming tests too.

When comparing these CPUs we notice that they have the same number of cores and the same number of threads. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Xeon E3-1245 v5 has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the Core i5-8350U. Also, the Xeon E3-1245 v5 has a slightly higher turbo speed. A Core i5-8350U CPU outputs less heat than a Xeon E3-1245 v5 CPU because of its significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption. In terms of cache, both these CPUs have the same amount of L2 cache. The Xeon E3-1245 v5 also has slightly 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 i5-8350U has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
