Core i7-4810MQ vs Xeon E3-1225 V2 comparison

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Core i7-4810MQ performs better than the Xeon E3-1225 V2. Despite this, the Xeon E3-1225 V2 has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

With info from our database, we find that the Xeon E3-1225 V2 has slightly more cores with 4 cores whereas the Core i7-4810MQ has 3 cores. Despite this, the Core i7-4810MQ has more threads than the Xeon E3-1225 V2. Our comparison shows that the Xeon E3-1225 V2 has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i7-4810MQ. In terms of cache, both these CPUs have the same amount of L2 cache. The Xeon E3-1225 V2 also has slightly more L3 cache.

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 i7-4810MQ has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
