Intel Xeon Silver 4114 vs Intel Core Ultra 7 258V

Xeon Silver 4114 vs Core Ultra 7 258V benchmarks

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Xeon Silver 4114 performs better than the Core Ultra 7 258V. Despite this, the Core Ultra 7 258V has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

In terms of the number of cores of each of these CPUs, the Xeon Silver 4114 has slightly more cores than the Core Ultra 7 258V. Indeed, the Xeon Silver 4114 has 10 cores compared to 8 cores found in the Core Ultra 7 258V. It also has more threads than the Core Ultra 7 258V. In terms of clock speed, the Xeon Silver 4114 and Core Ultra 7 258V are identical in this regard. Despite this, the Core Ultra 7 258V has a significantly 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 Silver 4114 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
