Intel Core i7-1165G7 vs Intel Xeon E5-2670

Core i7-1165G7 vs Xeon E5-2670 comparison

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Core i7-1165G7 performs better than the Xeon E5-2670. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Xeon E5-2670 in all gaming tests too.

In terms of the number of cores of each of these CPUs, the Xeon E5-2670 has significantly more cores than the Core i7-1165G7. Indeed, the Xeon E5-2670 has 8 cores compared to 4 cores found in the Core i7-1165G7. It also has more threads than the Core i7-1165G7. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Core i7-1165G7 has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Xeon E5-2670. Also, the Core i7-1165G7 has a slightly higher turbo speed. A Core i7-1165G7 CPU outputs less heat than a Xeon E5-2670 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 i7-1165G7 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
