Core i7-7567U vs Xeon W3520 comparison

In our benchmarks, the Core i7-7567U beats the Xeon W3520 in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Xeon W3520 in all gaming tests too.

With info from our database, we find that the Xeon W3520 has significantly more cores with 4 cores whereas the Core i7-7567U has 2 cores. But they both have the same number of threads. Our comparison shows that the Core i7-7567U has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Xeon W3520. Also, the Core i7-7567U has a slightly higher turbo speed. A Core i7-7567U CPU outputs less heat than a Xeon W3520 CPU because of its significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption.

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 i7-7567U has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
