Intel Core i7-5700EQ vs Intel Xeon E5-2408L v3: comparison

Comparison of Intel Core i7-5700EQ and Intel Xeon E5-2408L v3: key differences and a full specification table.

Key differences

Intel Core i7-5700EQ has a higher base clock (2.6 GHz vs 1.8 GHz) and a finer process node (14 nm vs 22 nm).

At the same time, Intel Xeon E5-2408L v3 has a lower TDP (45 W vs 47 W), a higher maximum memory size (384 GB vs 32 GB) and more memory channels (3 vs 2).

Both processors match on: core count (4), thread count (8), 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.
