Core i5-8400T vs Xeon E5-1650 v4 comparison

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Xeon E5-1650 v4 is faster than the Core i5-8400T. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i5-8400T in all gaming tests too.

When comparing these CPUs we notice that they have the same number of cores but the Xeon E5-1650 v4 has more threads. Our comparison shows that the Xeon E5-1650 v4 has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the Core i5-8400T. Also, the Xeon E5-1650 v4 has a slightly higher turbo speed. A Core i5-8400T CPU outputs less heat than a Xeon E5-1650 v4 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. For instance, the Core i5-8400T has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
