Core i7-9700 vs Xeon E5-2673 v4 comparison

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Xeon E5-2673 v4 is faster than the Core i7-9700. Despite this, the Core i7-9700 has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

When comparing core counts for these CPUs, we notice that the Xeon E5-2673 v4 has significantly more cores with 20 cores compared to the Core i7-9700 that has 8 cores. It also has more threads than the Core i7-9700. A Core i7-9700 CPU outputs less heat than a Xeon E5-2673 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. For instance, the Core i7-9700 has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
