Core i9-11900H vs Xeon E5-2687W v3 benchmarks

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Xeon E5-2687W v3 is faster than the Core i9-11900H. Despite this, the Core i9-11900H has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

With info from our database, we find that the Xeon E5-2687W v3 has slightly more cores with 10 cores whereas the Core i9-11900H has 8 cores. It also has more threads than the Core i9-11900H. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Xeon E5-2687W v3 has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i9-11900H. Despite this, the Core i9-11900H has a slightly higher turbo speed. A Core i9-11900H CPU outputs less heat than a Xeon E5-2687W v3 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 i9-11900H has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
