Xeon E3-1231 v3 vs Xeon E5-2689 comparison
Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Xeon E5-2689 performs better than the Xeon E3-1231 v3. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Xeon E3-1231 v3 in all gaming tests too.
In terms of the number of cores of each of these CPUs, the Xeon E5-2689 has significantly more cores than the Xeon E3-1231 v3. Indeed, the Xeon E5-2689 has 8 cores compared to 4 cores found in the Xeon E3-1231 v3. It also has more threads than the Xeon E3-1231 v3. A Xeon E3-1231 v3 CPU outputs less heat than a Xeon E5-2689 CPU because of its significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption.
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 E3-1231 v3 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
