Intel Core i7-4770K vs Intel Xeon E3-1240 V2

Core i7-4770K vs Xeon E3-1240 V2 benchmarks

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Core i7-4770K performs better than the Xeon E3-1240 V2. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Xeon E3-1240 V2 in all gaming tests too.

Our spec comparison shows that they have an identical amount of cores and the same number of threads. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Core i7-4770K has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Xeon E3-1240 V2. The data shows that both these CPUs have same sized L2 caches and L3 cache.

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 i7-4770K has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
