Intel Xeon Gold 6128 vs Intel Core i7-1255U

Xeon Gold 6128 vs Core i7-1255U comparison

In our benchmarks, the Xeon Gold 6128 beats the Core i7-1255U in overall performance. Despite this, the Core i7-1255U has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

In terms of the number of cores of each of these CPUs, the Core i7-1255U has significantly more cores than the Xeon Gold 6128. Indeed, the Core i7-1255U has 10 cores compared to 6 cores found in the Xeon Gold 6128. But they both have the same number of threads. Our comparison shows that the Xeon Gold 6128 has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the Core i7-1255U. Despite this, the Core i7-1255U has a slightly higher turbo speed. The Core i7-1255U outputs less heat than Xeon Gold 6128 thanks to a significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption.

The more cores a CPU has, the better the overall performance will be in parallel workloads such as multitasking. Many CPUs have more threads than cores, this means that each physical core is split into multiple logical cores, making them more efficient. Indeed, the Xeon Gold 6128 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
