Intel Core i7-6700T vs Intel Xeon E3-1245 v5

Core i7-6700T vs Xeon E3-1245 v5 benchmarks

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Xeon E3-1245 v5 is faster than the Core i7-6700T. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i7-6700T in all gaming tests too.

Info from our database shows that they both have the same core count and the same number of threads. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Xeon E3-1245 v5 has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i7-6700T. Also, the Xeon E3-1245 v5 has a slightly higher turbo speed. A Core i7-6700T CPU outputs less heat than a Xeon E3-1245 v5 CPU because of its significantly 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.

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 i7-6700T has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
