Intel Core i7-3770 vs Intel Xeon Gold 6226R

Core i7-3770 vs Xeon Gold 6226R benchmarks

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Core i7-3770 performs better than the Xeon Gold 6226R. Despite this, the Xeon Gold 6226R has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

When comparing core counts for these CPUs, we notice that the Xeon Gold 6226R has significantly more cores with 16 cores compared to the Core i7-3770 that has 4 cores. It also has more threads than the Core i7-3770. Our comparison shows that the Core i7-3770 has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Xeon Gold 6226R. Furthermore, both these CPUs have identical turbo speeds. A Core i7-3770 CPU outputs less heat than a Xeon Gold 6226R 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 i7-3770 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
