Intel Xeon E3-1535M v6 vs Intel Core i7-1260U

Xeon E3-1535M v6 vs Core i7-1260U comparison

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Xeon E3-1535M v6 is faster than the Core i7-1260U. Despite this, the Core i7-1260U has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

In terms of the number of cores of each of these CPUs, the Core i7-1260U has significantly more cores than the Xeon E3-1535M v6. Indeed, the Core i7-1260U has 10 cores compared to 4 cores found in the Xeon E3-1535M v6. It also has more threads than the Xeon E3-1535M v6. Our comparison shows that the Xeon E3-1535M v6 has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the Core i7-1260U. Despite this, the Core i7-1260U has a slightly higher turbo speed. The Core i7-1260U 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 info from our database shows that the Core i7-1260U has more L2 cache than the Xeon E3-1535M v6. The Core i7-1260U also has significantly more L3 cache.

Most CPUs have more threads than cores. This technology, colloquially called hyperthreading, improves performance by splitting a core into multiple virtual ones. This provides more efficient utilisation of a core. Indeed, the Xeon E3-1535M v6 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
