Intel Xeon Silver 4210T vs Intel Core i7-5850HQ

Intel Xeon Silver 4210T or Intel Core i7-5850HQ - 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 Silver 4210T has 10 cores with 20 threads and clocks with a maximum frequency of 3.20 GHz. Up to 1024 GB of memory is supported in 6 memory channels. The Intel Xeon Silver 4210T was released in Q1/2020.

The Intel Core i7-5850HQ has 4 cores with 8 threads and clocks with a maximum frequency of 3.60 GHz. The CPU supports up to 32 GB of memory in 2 memory channels. The Intel Core i7-5850HQ was released in Q2/2015.

The Intel Xeon Silver 4210T has 10 CPU cores and can calculate 20 threads in parallel. The clock frequency of the Intel Xeon Silver 4210T is 2.30 GHz (3.20 GHz) while the Intel Core i7-5850HQ has 4 CPU cores and 8 threads can calculate simultaneously. The clock frequency of the Intel Core i7-5850HQ is at 2.70 GHz (3.60 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 Silver 4210T or Intel Core i7-5850HQ 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 Silver 4210T can use up to 1024 GB of memory in 6 memory channels. The maximum memory bandwidth is 115.2 GB/s. The Intel Core i7-5850HQ supports up to 32 GB of memory in 2 memory channels and achieves a memory bandwidth of up to 29.9 GB/s.

The thermal design power (TDP for short) of the Intel Xeon Silver 4210T is 95 W, while the Intel Core i7-5850HQ has a TDP of 47 W. The TDP specifies the necessary cooling solution that is required to cool the processor sufficiently.

The Intel Xeon Silver 4210T is manufactured in 14 nm and has 13.75 MB cache. The Intel Core i7-5850HQ is manufactured in 14 nm and has a 6.00 MB cache.
