Intel Core i7-7800X vs Intel Xeon E5-2695 v2

Core i7-7800X vs Xeon E5-2695 v2 benchmarks

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Core i7-7800X is faster than the Xeon E5-2695 v2. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Xeon E5-2695 v2 in all gaming tests too.

In terms of the number of cores of each of these CPUs, the Xeon E5-2695 v2 has significantly more cores than the Core i7-7800X. Indeed, the Xeon E5-2695 v2 has 12 cores compared to 6 cores found in the Core i7-7800X. It also has more threads than the Core i7-7800X. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Core i7-7800X has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the Xeon E5-2695 v2. Also, the Core i7-7800X has a slightly higher turbo speed. The Xeon E5-2695 v2 outputs less heat than Core i7-7800X thanks to a slightly 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 i7-7800X has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
