Xeon E5-2650 v4 vs Core i5-12450H comparison

In our benchmarks, the Core i5-12450H beats the Xeon E5-2650 v4 in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Xeon E5-2650 v4 in all gaming tests too.

In terms of the number of cores of each of these CPUs, the Xeon E5-2650 v4 has significantly more cores than the Core i5-12450H. Indeed, the Xeon E5-2650 v4 has 12 cores compared to 8 cores found in the Core i5-12450H. It also has more threads than the Core i5-12450H. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Xeon E5-2650 v4 has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i5-12450H. Despite this, the Core i5-12450H has a significantly higher turbo speed. The Core i5-12450H outputs less heat than Xeon E5-2650 v4 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 E5-2650 v4 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
