Xeon E5-2667 v2 vs Core Ultra 5 226V specs and performance

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Core Ultra 5 226V is faster than the Xeon E5-2667 v2. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Xeon E5-2667 v2 in all gaming tests too.

Our spec comparison shows that they have an identical amount of cores but the Xeon E5-2667 v2 has more threads. With our hardware info, we find that the Xeon E5-2667 v2 has a significantly higher clock speed than the Core Ultra 5 226V. Despite this, the Core Ultra 5 226V has a slightly 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 E5-2667 v2 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
