Intel Core i7-1270P vs Intel Xeon E5-2687W v3

Core i7-1270P vs Xeon E5-2687W v3 benchmarks

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Core i7-1270P is faster than the Xeon E5-2687W v3. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Xeon E5-2687W v3 in all gaming tests too.

When comparing core counts for these CPUs, we notice that the Core i7-1270P has slightly more cores with 12 cores compared to the Xeon E5-2687W v3 that has 10 cores. Despite this, the Xeon E5-2687W v3 has more threads than the Core i7-1270P. Our comparison shows that the Xeon E5-2687W v3 has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i7-1270P. Despite this, the Core i7-1270P has a slightly higher turbo speed. A Core i7-1270P CPU outputs less heat than a Xeon E5-2687W v3 CPU because of its significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption. The cache sizes of these CPUs are different. Indeed, the Core i7-1270P has significantly more L2 cache than the Xeon E5-2687W v3. Despite this, the Xeon E5-2687W v3 has slightly more L3 cache compared to the Core i7-1270P.

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 i7-1270P has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
