Core i7-9700F vs Xeon E5-2630 v3 benchmarks

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Core i7-9700F performs better than the Xeon E5-2630 v3. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Xeon E5-2630 v3 in all gaming tests too.

Our spec comparison shows that they have an identical amount of cores but the Xeon E5-2630 v3 has more threads. Our comparison shows that the Core i7-9700F has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Xeon E5-2630 v3. Also, the Core i7-9700F has a significantly higher turbo speed. A Core i7-9700F CPU outputs less heat than a Xeon E5-2630 v3 CPU because of its 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. For instance, the Core i7-9700F has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
