Intel Xeon vs Core - What Is The Difference? [Simple Guide]

HT adds about a 10% boost. So if you have 8 cores, you would say that equates to 8.8 cores. HT is for compiling and rendering.

[@dom3827]

Wow, as wrong as it can get. Depending on the application, it can be up to 100% boost. And it is not for compiling and rendering, that was not even in mind when developing this technology. The Idea behind HT was to reduce the time where a Core does nothing. This only works so good, depending on the application etc. Sure, in Minecraft you do not get a 100% FPS boost. lol

[@photoniccannon2117]

@@dom3827 Most applications won’t see anywhere near 100% of a boost. I’ve done various benchmarks over the years and have seen anywhere from 15% on the low end to up to 40% in certain scenarios (more than the 30% advertised, which I was impressed to see). Hyper threading is still nothing to sneeze at, it’s definitely a sizable boost in heavily multithreaded workloads (especially when different types of tasks are run on different threads). But it’s not necessarily a blanket performance doubler on x86 implementations of SMT either. 30% is a pretty good estimate of average performance gains in my experience.

@@TechnoLadz lol nice way to put it XD but allow me to add my own slightly more accurate version to the mix for smooth performance: (note core here = physical core, so no threads considered) dual-core to quadcore CPUs for standard/light use (home, office, desktop apps). quadcore to hexacore (6 cores) for only gaming or gaming with some other tasks (like having discord/other things open in the background). hexacore to octacore (8 cores) for gaming and multitasking workloads (can be simultaneous such as streaming while gaming). 8 or more cores for any workloads that can take advantage of as many cores/threads as you throw at it such as video editing and rendering, heavy music production etc.

very out of date compared to these monsters 9th-12th gen cpus i was using a 3930 which i got 4 years ago i didnt do my research though so i thought it was new and thought it was used which was why it was so cheap but it was so cheap cause it was old i found out the same year i got it months later it was a old cpu for me copying tv show dvds took 5 mins for each episode and when i would skip through different scenes in my editor it would have a delay and rendering would take long say a hr video took like 40mins i upgraded 2 months ago to a 12400 and i no longer get delays previewing and rendering for the same length video takes 10mins my chip was 150 and im using a PRO B660M bought for 125 and my temps maxes in 60s thats when rendering before i would get to the 70s with my old chip and copying dvds eps take now 2 mins each my virus scans are faster to the reason i didnt upgrade to 12900 is cause it wasnt a big upgrade from the cpu i got now and the amazing thing is my cheap is a i5 model years ago in the era that my 3930 it was no i5s that could compete with that this goes for all i5s before the 10th gen i5s was always seen as the mid models now i5s since 10th gen can compete with the i7s it is no longer a big difference in performance like it used to be

Is the xeon processor much faster than the i7 processor ..... is it compatible or can any game be run ....

[@niallherrera4031]

It depends on Xeon CPUs
