Xeon E5-2630 v4 vs Xeon E5-2650 v3 benchmarks

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Xeon E5-2650 v3 is faster than the Xeon E5-2630 v4. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Xeon E5-2630 v4 in all gaming tests too.

Info from our database shows that they both have the same core count and the same number of threads. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Xeon E5-2650 v3 has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Xeon E5-2630 v4. Despite this, the Xeon E5-2630 v4 has a slightly higher turbo speed. A Xeon E5-2630 v4 CPU outputs less heat than a Xeon E5-2650 v3 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 E5-2630 v4 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
