Intel Core i7-10875H vs Intel Xeon E5-2697 v3

Core i7-10875H vs Xeon E5-2697 v3 comparison

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Xeon E5-2697 v3 is faster than the Core i7-10875H. Despite this, the Core i7-10875H has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

When comparing core counts for these CPUs, we notice that the Xeon E5-2697 v3 has significantly more cores with 14 cores compared to the Core i7-10875H that has 8 cores. It also has more threads than the Core i7-10875H. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Xeon E5-2697 v3 has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i7-10875H. Despite this, the Core i7-10875H has a slightly higher turbo speed. A Core i7-10875H CPU outputs less heat than a Xeon E5-2697 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. Indeed, the Core i7-10875H has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
