Intel Xeon Gold 5218B vs Intel Core i3-13100E

In this CPU comparison, we compare the Intel Xeon Gold 5218B and the Intel Core i3-13100E and use benchmarks to check which processor is faster.

We compare the Intel Xeon Gold 5218B 16 core processor released in Q2/2019 with the Intel Core i3-13100E which has 4 CPU cores and was introduced in Q1/2023.

The Intel Xeon Gold 5218B is a 16 core processor with a clock frequency of 2.30 GHz (3.90 GHz). The processor can compute 32 threads at the same time. The Intel Core i3-13100E clocks with 3.30 GHz (4.40 GHz), has 4 CPU cores and can calculate 8 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 GB of memory in a maximum of 6 memory channels is supported by the Intel Xeon Gold 5218B, while the Intel Core i3-13100E supports a maximum of 128 GB of memory with a maximum memory bandwidth of 76.8 GB/s enabled.

The Intel Xeon Gold 5218B has a TDP of 125 W. The TDP of the Intel Core i3-13100E is 65 W. System integrators use the TDP of the processor as a guide when dimensioning the cooling solution.

The Intel Xeon Gold 5218B has 22.00 MB cache and is manufactured in 14 nm. The cache of Intel Core i3-13100E is at 17.00 MB. The processor is manufactured in 10 nm.
