Intel Core i7-11850H vs Intel Xeon E5-1680 v2

Core i7-11850H vs Xeon E5-1680 v2 benchmarks

In our benchmarks, the Core i7-11850H beats the Xeon E5-1680 v2 in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Xeon E5-1680 v2 in all gaming tests too.

When comparing these CPUs we notice that they have the same number of cores and the same number of threads. A Core i7-11850H CPU outputs less heat than a Xeon E5-1680 v2 CPU because of its significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption.

The more cores a CPU has, the better the overall performance will be in parallel workloads such as multitasking. Many CPUs have more threads than cores, this means that each physical core is split into multiple logical cores, making them more efficient. Indeed, the Core i7-11850H has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
