Intel Core i7-9750H vs Intel Xeon E5-2678 v3

Core i7-9750H vs Xeon E5-2678 v3 comparison

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Xeon E5-2678 v3 is faster than the Core i7-9750H. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i7-9750H in all gaming tests too.

When comparing core counts for these CPUs, we notice that the Xeon E5-2678 v3 has significantly more cores with 12 cores compared to the Core i7-9750H that has 6 cores. It also has more threads than the Core i7-9750H. A Core i7-9750H CPU outputs less heat than a Xeon E5-2678 v3 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. Indeed, the Core i7-9750H has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
