Intel Core i5-8400T vs Intel Xeon E3-1245 V2

Core i5-8400T vs Xeon E3-1245 V2 comparison

In our benchmarks, the Core i5-8400T beats the Xeon E3-1245 V2 in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Xeon E3-1245 V2 in all gaming tests too.

With info from our database, we find that the Core i5-8400T has significantly more cores with 6 cores whereas the Xeon E3-1245 V2 has 4 cores. Despite this, the Xeon E3-1245 V2 has more threads than the Core i5-8400T. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Xeon E3-1245 V2 has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the Core i5-8400T. The info from our database shows that the Core i5-8400T has more L2 cache than the Xeon E3-1245 V2. The Core i5-8400T also has slightly more L3 cache.

The more cores a CPU has, the better the overall performance will be in parallel workloads such as multitasking. Many CPUs have more threads than cores, this means that each physical core is split into multiple logical cores, making them more efficient. For instance, the Core i5-8400T has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
