Core i5-9600 vs Xeon E5-1650 v3 benchmarks

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Core i5-9600 is faster than the Xeon E5-1650 v3. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Xeon E5-1650 v3 in all gaming tests too.

Info from our database shows that they both have the same core count but the Xeon E5-1650 v3 has more threads. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Xeon E5-1650 v3 has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i5-9600. Despite this, the Core i5-9600 has a slightly higher turbo speed. A Core i5-9600 CPU outputs less heat than a Xeon E5-1650 v3 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 i5-9600 has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
