Intel Xeon E-2186M vs Intel Core i5-13420H

Xeon E-2186M vs Core i5-13420H specs and performance

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Core i5-13420H performs better than the Xeon E-2186M. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Xeon E-2186M in all gaming tests too.

In terms of the number of cores of each of these CPUs, the Core i5-13420H has slightly more cores than the Xeon E-2186M. Indeed, the Core i5-13420H has 8 cores compared to 6 cores found in the Xeon E-2186M. But they both have the same number of threads. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Xeon E-2186M has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i5-13420H. Also, the Xeon E-2186M has a slightly higher turbo speed.

The more cores a CPU has, the better the overall performance will be in parallel workloads such as multitasking. Many CPUs have more threads than cores, this means that each physical core is split into multiple logical cores, making them more efficient. Indeed, the Xeon E-2186M has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
