Core i7-9850H vs Xeon E5-2650 v4 comparison

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Xeon E5-2650 v4 is faster than the Core i7-9850H. Despite this, the Core i7-9850H has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

With info from our database, we find that the Xeon E5-2650 v4 has significantly more cores with 12 cores whereas the Core i7-9850H has 6 cores. It also has more threads than the Core i7-9850H. With our hardware info, we find that the Core i7-9850H has a slightly higher clock speed than the Xeon E5-2650 v4. Also, the Core i7-9850H has a significantly higher turbo speed. A Core i7-9850H CPU outputs less heat than a Xeon E5-2650 v4 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 i7-9850H has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
