Core i7-8565U vs Xeon E5-620 benchmarks

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Core i7-8565U is faster than the Xeon E5-620. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Xeon E5-620 in all gaming tests too.

Our spec comparison shows that they have an identical amount of cores and the same number of threads. Our comparison shows that the Xeon E5-620 has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i7-8565U. Despite this, the Core i7-8565U has a significantly higher turbo speed. A Core i7-8565U CPU outputs less heat than a Xeon E5-620 CPU because of its significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption. In terms of cache, the Core i7-8565U has significantly more L2 cache when compared to the Xeon E5-620. The Core i7-8565U also has significantly more L3 cache.

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 i7-8565U has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
