Xeon E5-2665 vs Core Ultra 7 258V benchmarks

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Core Ultra 7 258V is faster than the Xeon E5-2665. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Xeon E5-2665 in all gaming tests too.

Info from our database shows that they both have the same core count but the Xeon E5-2665 has more threads. With our hardware info, we find that the Xeon E5-2665 has a slightly higher clock speed than the Core Ultra 7 258V. Despite this, the Core Ultra 7 258V has a significantly higher turbo speed.

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 E5-2665 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
