Intel Core i7-6820HK vs Intel Xeon E5-1650

Core i7-6820HK vs Xeon E5-1650 comparison

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Xeon E5-1650 is faster than the Core i7-6820HK. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i7-6820HK in all gaming tests too.

In terms of the number of cores of each of these CPUs, the Xeon E5-1650 has significantly more cores than the Core i7-6820HK. Indeed, the Xeon E5-1650 has 6 cores compared to 4 cores found in the Core i7-6820HK. It also has more threads than the Core i7-6820HK. Our comparison shows that the Xeon E5-1650 has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i7-6820HK. Also, the Xeon E5-1650 has a slightly higher turbo speed. A Core i7-6820HK CPU outputs less heat than a Xeon E5-1650 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 i7-6820HK has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
