Intel Core i7-8700T vs Intel Xeon E5-1650 v4

Core i7-8700T vs Xeon E5-1650 v4 specs and performance

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Xeon E5-1650 v4 performs better than the Core i7-8700T. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i7-8700T in all gaming tests too.

When comparing these CPUs we notice that they have the same number of cores and the same number of threads. Our comparison shows that the Xeon E5-1650 v4 has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the Core i7-8700T. Furthermore, both these CPUs have identical turbo speeds. A Core i7-8700T CPU outputs less heat than a Xeon E5-1650 v4 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 i7-8700T has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
