Intel Xeon E3-1535M v6 vs Intel Core i3-1215U

Xeon E3-1535M v6 vs Core i3-1215U comparison

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Core i3-1215U performs better than the Xeon E3-1535M v6. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Xeon E3-1535M v6 in all gaming tests too.

In terms of the number of cores of each of these CPUs, the Core i3-1215U has significantly more cores than the Xeon E3-1535M v6. Indeed, the Core i3-1215U has 6 cores compared to 4 cores found in the Xeon E3-1535M v6. But they both have the same number of threads. With our hardware info, we find that the Xeon E3-1535M v6 has a significantly higher clock speed than the Core i3-1215U. Despite this, the Core i3-1215U has a slightly higher turbo speed. The Core i3-1215U outputs less heat than Xeon E3-1535M v6 thanks to a significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption. The cache sizes of these CPUs are different. Indeed, the Core i3-1215U has significantly more L2 cache than the Xeon E3-1535M v6. The Core i3-1215U 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 E3-1535M v6 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
