Intel Xeon E3-1240 V2 vs Intel Core i7-4710MQ

Xeon E3-1240 V2 vs Core i7-4710MQ benchmarks

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Xeon E3-1240 V2 is faster than the Core i7-4710MQ. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i7-4710MQ in all gaming tests too.

Our spec comparison shows that they have an identical amount of cores and the same number of threads. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Xeon E3-1240 V2 has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i7-4710MQ. The data shows that both these CPUs have same sized L2 caches. The Xeon E3-1240 V2 also has slightly more L3 cache.

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 E3-1240 V2 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
