Core i7-9700F vs Xeon E5-2689 benchmarks

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Core i7-9700F performs better than the Xeon E5-2689. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Xeon E5-2689 in all gaming tests too.

Info from our database shows that they both have the same core count but the Xeon E5-2689 has more threads. A Core i7-9700F CPU outputs less heat than a Xeon E5-2689 CPU because of its significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption.

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. For instance, the Core i7-9700F has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
