Intel Xeon Gold 5220S vs Intel Core i5-750S

Intel Xeon Gold 5220S or Intel Core i5-750S - which processor is faster? In this comparison we look at the differences and analyze which of these two CPUs is better. We compare the technical data and benchmark results.

The Intel Xeon Gold 5220S has 18 cores with 36 threads and clocks with a maximum frequency of 3.90 GHz. Up to 1024 GB of memory is supported in 6 memory channels. The Intel Xeon Gold 5220S was released in Q2/2019.

The Intel Core i5-750S has 4 cores with 4 threads and clocks with a maximum frequency of 3.20 GHz. The CPU supports up to 16 GB of memory in 2 memory channels. The Intel Core i5-750S was released in Q1/2010.

The Intel Xeon Gold 5220S has 18 CPU cores and can calculate 36 threads in parallel. The clock frequency of the Intel Xeon Gold 5220S is 2.70 GHz (3.90 GHz) while the Intel Core i5-750S has 4 CPU cores and 4 threads can calculate simultaneously. The clock frequency of the Intel Core i5-750S is at 2.40 GHz (3.20 GHz).

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.

The Intel Xeon Gold 5220S or Intel Core i5-750S has integrated graphics, called iGPU for short. The iGPU uses the system's main memory as graphics memory and sits on the processor's die.

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.

The Intel Xeon Gold 5220S can use up to 1024 GB of memory in 6 memory channels. The maximum memory bandwidth is 128.1 GB/s. The Intel Core i5-750S supports up to 16 GB of memory in 2 memory channels and achieves a memory bandwidth of up to 21.3 GB/s.

The thermal design power (TDP for short) of the Intel Xeon Gold 5220S is 125 W, while the Intel Core i5-750S has a TDP of 82 W. The TDP specifies the necessary cooling solution that is required to cool the processor sufficiently.

The Intel Xeon Gold 5220S is manufactured in 14 nm and has 24.75 MB cache. The Intel Core i5-750S is manufactured in 45 nm and has a 9.00 MB cache.
