Intel Xeon E5-2640 v3 vs Intel Core i9-13900H

Xeon E5-2640 v3 vs Core i9-13900H benchmarks

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Core i9-13900H is faster than the Xeon E5-2640 v3. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Xeon E5-2640 v3 in all gaming tests too.

In terms of the number of cores of each of these CPUs, the Core i9-13900H has significantly more cores than the Xeon E5-2640 v3. Indeed, the Core i9-13900H has 14 cores compared to 8 cores found in the Xeon E5-2640 v3. It also has more threads than the Xeon E5-2640 v3. According to our data, the Xeon E5-2640 v3 and Core i9-13900H have the same clock speed. Despite this, the Core i9-13900H has a significantly higher turbo speed.

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 E5-2640 v3 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
