Xeon E5-2690 v2 vs Core i5-1335U benchmarks
Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Xeon E5-2690 v2 performs better than the Core i5-1335U. Despite this, the Core i5-1335U has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.
When comparing these CPUs we notice that they have the same number of cores but the Xeon E5-2690 v2 has more threads. With our hardware info, we find that the Xeon E5-2690 v2 has a significantly higher clock speed than the Core i5-1335U. Despite this, the Core i5-1335U 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 E5-2690 v2 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
