Intel Core i7-4770K vs Intel Xeon E3-1245 v5

Core i7-4770K vs Xeon E3-1245 v5 specs and performance

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Xeon E3-1245 v5 is faster than the Core i7-4770K. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i7-4770K 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. According to our data, the Core i7-4770K and Xeon E3-1245 v5 have the same clock speed. In addition, both chips have the same turbo speed. The Xeon E3-1245 v5 outputs less heat than Core i7-4770K thanks to a slightly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption. 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.
