Intel Core i7-2760QM vs Intel Xeon X5570

Core i7-2760QM vs Xeon X5570 specs and performance

In our benchmarks, the Core i7-2760QM beats the Xeon X5570 in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Xeon X5570 in all gaming tests too.

Our spec comparison shows that they have an identical amount of cores but the Core i7-2760QM has more threads. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Xeon X5570 has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i7-2760QM. Despite this, the Core i7-2760QM has a slightly higher turbo speed. A Core i7-2760QM CPU outputs less heat than a Xeon X5570 CPU because of its significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption.

Modern CPUs generally have more logical cores than physical cores, this means that each core is split into multiple virtual cores, improving efficiency for parallel workloads. Indeed, the Core i7-2760QM has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
