Intel Core i7-6920HQ vs Intel Xeon X5482

Core i7-6920HQ vs Xeon X5482 comparison

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Core i7-6920HQ is faster than the Xeon X5482. Despite this, the Xeon X5482 has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

When comparing these CPUs we notice that they have the same number of cores but the Core i7-6920HQ has more threads. Our comparison shows that the Xeon X5482 has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i7-6920HQ. A Core i7-6920HQ CPU outputs less heat than a Xeon X5482 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 i7-6920HQ has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
