Xeon E5-2643 v2 vs Xeon X5675 comparison

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Xeon E5-2643 v2 performs better than the Xeon X5675. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Xeon X5675 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. With our hardware info, we find that the Xeon E5-2643 v2 has a slightly higher clock speed than the Xeon X5675. Also, the Xeon E5-2643 v2 has a slightly higher turbo speed. The Xeon X5675 outputs less heat than Xeon E5-2643 v2 thanks to a slightly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption.

The more cores a CPU has, the better the overall performance will be in parallel workloads such as multitasking. Many CPUs have more threads than cores, this means that each physical core is split into multiple logical cores, making them more efficient. Indeed, the Xeon E5-2643 v2 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
