With our hardware info, we find that the Core i7-4910MQ has a significantly higher clock speed than the Xeon E5-2620. Also, the Core i7-4910MQ has a significantly higher turbo speed. The Core i7-4910MQ outputs less heat than Xeon E5-2620 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 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
