Intel Core i7-9750H vs Intel Xeon E5-2643 v2

Core i7-9750H vs Xeon E5-2643 v2 comparison

In our benchmarks, the Core i7-9750H beats the Xeon E5-2643 v2 in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Xeon E5-2643 v2 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 E5-2643 v2 has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i7-9750H. Despite this, the Core i7-9750H has a slightly higher turbo speed. A Core i7-9750H CPU outputs less heat than a Xeon E5-2643 v2 CPU because of its significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption.

Most CPUs have more threads than cores. This technology, colloquially called hyperthreading, improves performance by splitting a core into multiple virtual ones. This provides more efficient utilisation of a core. Indeed, the Core i7-9750H has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
