Xeon E3-1245 v3 vs Core i7-4800MQ specs and performance

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Core i7-4800MQ is faster than the Xeon E3-1245 v3. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Xeon E3-1245 v3 in all gaming tests too.

When comparing these CPUs we notice that they have the same number of cores and the same number of threads. With our hardware info, we find that the Xeon E3-1245 v3 has a slightly higher clock speed than the Core i7-4800MQ. Also, the Xeon E3-1245 v3 has a slightly higher turbo speed. The Core i7-4800MQ outputs less heat than Xeon E3-1245 v3 thanks to a 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 E3-1245 v3 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
