Intel Core i3-330UM vs Intel Xeon Platinum 8490H

In this CPU comparison, we compare the Intel Core i3-330UM and the Intel Xeon Platinum 8490H and use benchmarks to check which processor is faster.

We compare the Intel Core i3-330UM 2 core processor released in Q2/2010 with the Intel Xeon Platinum 8490H which has 60 CPU cores and was introduced in Q1/2023.

The Intel Core i3-330UM is a 2 core processor with a clock frequency of 1.20 GHz. The processor can compute 4 threads at the same time. The Intel Xeon Platinum 8490H clocks with 1.90 GHz (3.50 GHz), has 60 CPU cores and can calculate 120 threads in parallel.

The performance values of the processor's AI unit. The isolated NPU performance is specified here, the total AI performance (NPU+CPU+iGPU) can be higher. Processors with support for artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) can process many calculations, especially audio, image and video processing, much faster than classic processors.

Graphics (iGPU) integrated into the processor not only enable image output without having to rely on a dedicated graphics solution, but can also efficiently accelerate video playback.

A photo or video codec that is accelerated in hardware can greatly accelerate the working speed of a processor and extend the battery life of notebooks or smartphones when playing videos.

Up to 8 GB of memory in a maximum of 2 memory channels is supported by the Intel Core i3-330UM, while the Intel Xeon Platinum 8490H supports a maximum of 4096 GB of memory with a maximum memory bandwidth of 307.2 GB/s enabled.

The Intel Core i3-330UM has a TDP of 18 W. The TDP of the Intel Xeon Platinum 8490H is 350 W. System integrators use the TDP of the processor as a guide when dimensioning the cooling solution.

The Intel Core i3-330UM has 3.00 MB cache and is manufactured in 32 nm. The cache of Intel Xeon Platinum 8490H is at 112.50 MB. The processor is manufactured in 10 nm.
