Xeon E5-2695 v2 vs Core i5-12450HX benchmarks

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Core i5-12450HX performs better than the Xeon E5-2695 v2. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Xeon E5-2695 v2 in all gaming tests too.

In terms of the number of cores of each of these CPUs, the Xeon E5-2695 v2 has significantly more cores than the Core i5-12450HX. Indeed, the Xeon E5-2695 v2 has 12 cores compared to 8 cores found in the Core i5-12450HX. It also has more threads than the Core i5-12450HX. In terms of clock speed, the Xeon E5-2695 v2 and Core i5-12450HX are identical in this regard. Despite this, the Core i5-12450HX has a slightly higher turbo speed. The Core i5-12450HX outputs less heat than Xeon E5-2695 v2 thanks to a significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption.

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 E5-2695 v2 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
