Intel Core i9-9900 vs Intel Xeon E5-2667 v2

Core i9-9900 vs Xeon E5-2667 v2 comparison

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Core i9-9900 performs better than the Xeon E5-2667 v2. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Xeon E5-2667 v2 in all gaming tests too.

Info from our database shows that they both have the same core count and the same number of threads. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Xeon E5-2667 v2 has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i9-9900. Despite this, the Core i9-9900 has a slightly higher turbo speed. A Core i9-9900 CPU outputs less heat than a Xeon E5-2667 v2 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 i9-9900 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
