Xeon X5650 vs Xeon E3-1220 v5 comparison
According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Xeon E3-1220 v5 is faster than the Xeon X5650. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Xeon X5650 in all gaming tests too.
When comparing core counts for these CPUs, we notice that the Xeon X5650 has significantly more cores with 6 cores compared to the Xeon E3-1220 v5 that has 4 cores. It also has more threads than the Xeon E3-1220 v5. With our hardware info, we find that the Xeon E3-1220 v5 has a slightly higher clock speed than the Xeon X5650. Also, the Xeon E3-1220 v5 has a slightly higher turbo speed. The Xeon E3-1220 v5 outputs less heat than Xeon X5650 thanks to a slightly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption. In terms of cache, the Xeon X5650 has significantly more L2 cache when compared to the Xeon E3-1220 v5. The Xeon X5650 also has significantly more L3 cache.
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 X5650 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
