Intel Xeon Platinum 8354H vs Intel Core i3-12300HL

In this CPU comparison, we compare the Intel Xeon Platinum 8354H and the Intel Core i3-12300HL and use benchmarks to check which processor is faster.

We compare the Intel Xeon Platinum 8354H 18 core processor released in Q2/2020 with the Intel Core i3-12300HL which has 8 CPU cores and was introduced in Q1/2022.

The Intel Xeon Platinum 8354H is a 18 core processor with a clock frequency of 3.10 GHz (4.30 GHz). The processor can compute 36 threads at the same time. The Intel Core i3-12300HL clocks with 2.00 GHz (4.40 GHz), has 8 CPU cores and can calculate 12 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 1146 GB of memory in a maximum of 6 memory channels is supported by the Intel Xeon Platinum 8354H, while the Intel Core i3-12300HL supports a maximum of 64 GB of memory with a maximum memory bandwidth of 76.8 GB/s enabled.

The Intel Xeon Platinum 8354H has a TDP of 205 W. The TDP of the Intel Core i3-12300HL is 45 W. System integrators use the TDP of the processor as a guide when dimensioning the cooling solution.

The Intel Xeon Platinum 8354H has 24.75 MB cache and is manufactured in 14 nm. The cache of Intel Core i3-12300HL is at 17.00 MB. The processor is manufactured in 10 nm.
