Intel Core i3-7100E vs Intel Xeon E3-1505L v6: comparison

Comparison of Intel Core i3-7100E and Intel Xeon E3-1505L v6: key differences and a full specification table.

Key differences

Intel Core i3-7100E has a higher base clock (2.9 GHz vs 2.2 GHz).

At the same time, Intel Xeon E3-1505L v6 has more cores (4 vs 2), more threads (8 vs 4), a lower TDP (25 W vs 35 W) and a higher maximum integrated graphics clock (1 GHz vs 950 MHz).

Both processors match on: process node (14 nm), maximum memory size (64 GB), memory channels (2), PCIe version (3).

These are specification values: they show differences between the models but do not determine a performance winner. For a specific workload, rely on independent benchmarks.
