Intel Core i5-8365U vs Intel Xeon E5-649

Core i5-8365U vs Xeon E5-649 specs and performance

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Core i5-8365U is faster than the Xeon E5-649. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Xeon E5-649 in all gaming tests too.

In terms of the number of cores of each of these CPUs, the Xeon E5-649 has significantly more cores than the Core i5-8365U. Indeed, the Xeon E5-649 has 6 cores compared to 4 cores found in the Core i5-8365U. Despite this, the Core i5-8365U has more threads than the Xeon E5-649. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Xeon E5-649 has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the Core i5-8365U. Despite this, the Core i5-8365U has a slightly higher turbo speed. A Core i5-8365U CPU outputs less heat than a Xeon E5-649 CPU because of its significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption.

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 i5-8365U has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
