Xeon E5-440 vs FX-870K benchmarks
Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Xeon E5-440 performs better than the FX-870K. Despite this, the FX-870K has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.
When comparing core counts for these CPUs, we notice that the Xeon E5-440 has significantly more cores with 4 cores compared to the FX-870K that has 2 cores. But they both have the same number of threads. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the FX-870K has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Xeon E5-440. The cache sizes of these CPUs are different. Indeed, the Xeon E5-440 has significantly more L2 cache than the FX-870K
Modern CPUs generally have more logical cores than physical cores, this means that each core is split into multiple virtual cores, improving efficiency for parallel workloads. For instance, the Xeon E5-440 has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
