Xeon E5-1650 vs Xeon E5-1650 v4 comparison

In our benchmarks, the Xeon E5-1650 v4 beats the Xeon E5-1650 in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Xeon E5-1650 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. Our comparison shows that the Xeon E5-1650 v4 has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Xeon E5-1650. Also, the Xeon E5-1650 v4 has a slightly higher turbo speed. A Xeon E5-1650 CPU outputs less heat than a Xeon E5-1650 v4 CPU because of its slightly 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 E5-1650 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
