Intel Core i7-1065G7 vs Intel Xeon E3-1220 v5

Core i7-1065G7 vs Xeon E3-1220 v5 comparison

In our benchmarks, the Core i7-1065G7 beats the Xeon E3-1220 v5 in overall performance. Despite this, the Xeon E3-1220 v5 has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

Our spec comparison shows that they have an identical amount of cores but the Core i7-1065G7 has more threads. Our comparison shows that the Xeon E3-1220 v5 has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the Core i7-1065G7. Despite this, the Core i7-1065G7 has a slightly higher turbo speed. A Core i7-1065G7 CPU outputs less heat than a Xeon E3-1220 v5 CPU because of its significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption. In terms of cache, both these CPUs have the same amount of L2 cache and L3 cache.

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 i7-1065G7 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
