Intel Xeon E5-2690 v2 vs Intel Core i7-1360P

Xeon E5-2690 v2 vs Core i7-1360P benchmarks

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Core i7-1360P is faster than the Xeon E5-2690 v2. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Xeon E5-2690 v2 in all gaming tests too.

In terms of the number of cores of each of these CPUs, the Core i7-1360P has slightly more cores than the Xeon E5-2690 v2. Indeed, the Core i7-1360P has 12 cores compared to 10 cores found in the Xeon E5-2690 v2. Despite this, the Xeon E5-2690 v2 has more threads than the Core i7-1360P. With our hardware info, we find that the Xeon E5-2690 v2 has a slightly higher clock speed than the Core i7-1360P. Despite this, the Core i7-1360P 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.
