Intel Xeon E-2146G vs Intel Xeon E5-1660 v4

Xeon E-2146G vs Xeon E5-1660 v4 comparison

In our benchmarks, the Xeon E-2146G beats the Xeon E5-1660 v4 in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Xeon E5-1660 v4 in all gaming tests too.

In terms of the number of cores of each of these CPUs, the Xeon E5-1660 v4 has slightly more cores than the Xeon E-2146G. Indeed, the Xeon E5-1660 v4 has 8 cores compared to 6 cores found in the Xeon E-2146G. It also has more threads than the Xeon E-2146G. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Xeon E-2146G has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Xeon E5-1660 v4. Also, the Xeon E-2146G has a slightly higher turbo speed. A Xeon E-2146G CPU outputs less heat than a Xeon E5-1660 v4 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 Xeon E-2146G has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
