Intel Xeon E5-2673 v4 vs Intel Core i7-12800H

Xeon E5-2673 v4 vs Core i7-12800H specs and performance

In our benchmarks, the Xeon E5-2673 v4 beats the Core i7-12800H in overall performance. Despite this, the Core i7-12800H has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

In terms of the number of cores of each of these CPUs, the Xeon E5-2673 v4 has many more cores than the Core i7-12800H. Indeed, the Xeon E5-2673 v4 has 20 cores compared to 14 cores found in the Core i7-12800H. It also has more threads than the Core i7-12800H. The Core i7-12800H outputs less heat than Xeon E5-2673 v4 thanks to a significantly 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 E5-2673 v4 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
