Core i5-8365U vs Xeon X5680 comparison
Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Xeon X5680 performs better than the Core i5-8365U. Despite this, the Core i5-8365U has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.
In terms of the number of cores of each of these CPUs, the Xeon X5680 has significantly more cores than the Core i5-8365U. Indeed, the Xeon X5680 has 6 cores compared to 4 cores found in the Core i5-8365U. It also has more threads than the Core i5-8365U. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Xeon X5680 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 X5680 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. Indeed, the Core i5-8365U has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
