Core i7-7800X vs Xeon E5-1650 v4 benchmarks

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Core i7-7800X is faster than the Xeon E5-1650 v4. Despite this, the Xeon E5-1650 v4 has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

Info from our database shows that they both have the same core count and the same number of threads. Our comparison shows that the Xeon E5-1650 v4 has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i7-7800X. Furthermore, both these CPUs have identical turbo speeds. Both these chips have an identical TDP (Thermal Design Power). 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 i7-7800X has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
