Intel Xeon E5-2620 v3 vs Intel Xeon E3-1535M v6

Xeon E5-2620 v3 vs Xeon E3-1535M v6 comparison

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Xeon E5-2620 v3 is faster than the Xeon E3-1535M v6. Despite this, the Xeon E3-1535M v6 has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

In terms of the number of cores of each of these CPUs, the Xeon E5-2620 v3 has significantly more cores than the Xeon E3-1535M v6. Indeed, the Xeon E5-2620 v3 has 6 cores compared to 4 cores found in the Xeon E3-1535M v6. It also has more threads than the Xeon E3-1535M v6. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Xeon E3-1535M v6 has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Xeon E5-2620 v3. Also, the Xeon E3-1535M v6 has a slightly higher turbo speed. The Xeon E3-1535M v6 outputs less heat than Xeon E5-2620 v3 thanks to a significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption.

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 E5-2620 v3 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
