Xeon E5-2678 v3 vs Core i5-1340P comparison
Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Core i5-1340P performs better than the Xeon E5-2678 v3. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Xeon E5-2678 v3 in all gaming tests too.
When comparing these CPUs we notice that they have the same number of cores but the Xeon E5-2678 v3 has more threads.
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 E5-2678 v3 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
