Intel Core i7-11370H vs Intel Xeon D-1567 Comparison

Head-to-Head Benchmarks

The recorded data shows a remarkably consistent picture across every shared benchmark: the Intel Core i7-11370H wins all six head-to-head comparisons, but by a narrow margin. The largest advantage appears in Cinebench R15 multicore, where the Core i7-11370H scores 987 against the Xeon D-1567's 965, a 2.3% lead. The same 2.3% delta appears in Cinebench R20 multicore (4113 vs 4022) and Cinebench R20 singlecore (580 vs 567). This consistency suggests the performance gap is structural rather than workload-dependent.

Single-threaded results tell the same story. In Cinebench R15 singlecore, the Core i7-11370H posts 139 versus 136, a 2.2% edge. Cinebench R23 singlecore shows 1382 against 1352, again 2.2%. The multicore Cinebench R23 result is 9793 for the Core i7-11370H and 9578 for the Xeon D-1567, a 2.2% difference. There is no benchmark in the database where the Xeon D-1567 takes the lead.

What makes this interesting is the core count disparity. The Xeon D-1567 packs 12 cores and 24 threads, while the Core i7-11370H manages only 4 cores and 8 threads. Despite having three times the core count, the Xeon cannot convert that into a multicore victory. The largest multicore delta is just 2.3%, meaning the Core i7-11370H's higher clock speeds nearly cancel out the Xeon's additional cores. The boost clock difference is substantial: 4.80 GHz for the Core i7-11370H versus 2.70 GHz for the Xeon D-1567, and base clocks are 3.00 GHz and 2.10 GHz respectively.

The average benchmark scores reinforce the closeness. The Core i7-11370H holds an average score of 2861, while the Xeon D-1567 sits at 2770. Both processors land at the 51st percentile among all CPUs in the database, placing them in the same performance tier overall. The Core i7-11370H's nearest rivals include the AMD Ryzen 3 PRO 5475U at 2865 (0.1% ahead), the Intel Xeon E-2126G at 2842 (0.7% behind), the Intel Core i7-6800K at 2838 (0.8% behind), and the Intel Core i5-10600 at 2837 (0.9% behind). The Xeon D-1567's nearest rivals cluster around the AMD Ryzen 3 PRO 4350GE at 2767 (0.1% ahead), the AMD Ryzen 3 PRO 4350G at 2774 (0.2% behind), the Intel Core i7-5930K at 2775 (0.2% behind), and the AMD Ryzen 3 5400U at 2765 (0.2% ahead). Both CPUs sit in a dense pack where 1% swings determine ranking order.

Where Each One Wins

The Core i7-11370H wins every benchmark category present in the database, but the wins are narrow enough that the Xeon D-1567 remains competitive in specific contexts. The singlecore results favor the Core i7-11370H consistently, which points to workloads that depend on per-thread performance: legacy applications, lightly threaded rendering tasks, and interactive responsiveness. The 4.80 GHz boost clock gives it a clear advantage in latency-sensitive operations, and the Cinebench singlecore deltas of 2.2% to 2.3% confirm this pattern.

The multicore results also favor the Core i7-11370H, but the margin is the same 2.2% to 2.3%. This is where the Xeon D-1567's design philosophy becomes relevant. With 12 cores and 24 threads, the Xeon should theoretically dominate multithreaded workloads, yet the data shows it does not. The explanation lies in the clock speeds: the Xeon's 2.70 GHz boost clock is far below the Core i7's 4.80 GHz. The Core i7-11370H essentially wins multicore through raw clock speed rather than core count.

For users considering the Xeon D-1567, the database suggests it is not a performance leader in the tested benchmarks. Its strength, if any, would come from its server/workstation positioning rather than raw throughput in Cinebench tests. The Xeon supports ECC memory, which the Core i7-11370H does not, and it offers more PCIe lanes (Gen 3, 24 lanes versus Gen 4, 20 lanes). These features matter for reliability and expansion, not for the benchmark scores recorded here.

The Core i7-11370H also brings integrated graphics with Iris XE 96EU, while the Xeon D-1567 has no integrated graphics at all. Systems built around the Xeon must pair it with a discrete GPU, whereas the Core i7-11370H can handle display output on its own. For compact or mobile builds, this is a practical advantage that benchmarks do not capture.

Architecture Differences

The two processors come from different Intel generations and target different market segments. The Core i7-11370H uses the Tiger Lake architecture, specifically Tiger Lake-H, built on a 10 nm process. The Xeon D-1567 uses the older Broadwell architecture, specifically Broadwell-DE, on a 14 nm process. The die sizes reflect this gap: the Core i7-11370H measures 146.1 mm², while the Xeon D-1567 is significantly larger at 246 mm². The Xeon also contains 3,200 million transistors, a figure not available for the Core i7-11370H in the database.

Cache layouts differ substantially. The Core i7-11370H provides 80 KB of L1 cache per core, 1.25 MB of L2 per core, and 12 MB of shared L3. The Xeon D-1567 provides 64 KB of L1 per core, 256 KB of L2 per core, and 1.5 MB of L3 per core. The per-core L2 allocation favors the Core i7 dramatically, at 1.25 MB versus 256 KB, which helps explain its strong single-threaded showing despite the smaller core count. The Xeon's L3 is distributed per core at 1.5 MB, but the total shared cache is not listed in the database.

Memory support also diverges. The Core i7-11370H supports DDR4 in a dual-channel configuration with a measured memory bandwidth of 51.2 GB/s. The Xeon D-1567 supports both DDR3 and DDR4 in dual-channel mode, but its memory bandwidth is not recorded. ECC memory is supported on the Xeon D-1567 and not on the Core i7-11370H, a key differentiator for server deployments where data integrity is critical.

PCIe capabilities favor the Xeon in lane count but the Core i7 in generation. The Xeon D-1567 offers Gen 3 with 24 lanes, while the Core i7-11370H offers Gen 4 with 20 lanes. The newer Gen 4 standard provides higher bandwidth per lane, so the Core i7's lower lane count may still deliver comparable or better total throughput for compatible devices. The Core i7 also integrates Iris XE 96EU graphics, a feature entirely absent from the Xeon D-1567.

The socket situation is another split: Intel BGA 1449 for the Core i7-11370H versus Intel BGA 1667 for the Xeon D-1567. These are not interchangeable, meaning any system design must commit to one platform. The TDP difference is also notable: the Core i7-11370H draws 28 W, while the Xeon D-1567 draws 65 W. The Core i7 achieves its benchmark results at less than half the power envelope, which is a significant efficiency advantage.

Release dates show a five-year gap. The Xeon D-1567 launched on 2016-02-23, while the Core i7-11370H launched on 2021-01-10. Both remain in active production according to the database, and neither has an unlocked multiplier. The Core i7-11370H carries the part number SRKH5, and the Xeon D-1567 carries SR2M3.

The Verdict

The data points to the Intel Core i7-11370H as the better performer in every benchmark category recorded. It wins all six head-to-head tests, offers a higher boost clock at 4.80 GHz versus 2.70 GHz, and does so with a TDP of 28 W compared to the Xeon's 65 W. Its 12 MB of shared L3 cache and per-core L2 allocation of 1.25 MB give it a memory hierarchy advantage that shows up in both singlecore and multicore results. For users prioritizing raw benchmark performance, power efficiency, or integrated graphics, the Core i7-11370H is the clear choice.

The Xeon D-1567 is not without merit, but its strengths lie outside the tested benchmarks. Its 12 cores and 24 threads provide headroom for heavily parallel server workloads, though the Cinebench multicore results suggest that headroom is not fully realized at its clock speeds. ECC memory support and 24 PCIe Gen 3 lanes make it a candidate for server or workstation deployments where data integrity and expansion capacity matter more than benchmark scores. Its 1.5 MB per-core L3 cache and 256 KB per-core L2 are modest by comparison.

The release date gap matters for platform longevity. The Xeon D-1567 launched in 2016, while the Core i7-11370H launched in 2021. The newer Tiger Lake architecture brings a smaller process node and newer PCIe generation. The Xeon's active production status keeps it relevant, but the benchmark data shows it trailing the Core i7 in every shared test.

For a mobile or compact system where power draw and integrated graphics are priorities, the Core i7-11370H is the obvious pick. For a server environment where ECC memory is non-negotiable and the 65 W TDP is acceptable, the Xeon D-1567 remains a viable option despite its benchmark deficit. The 2.2% to 2.3% margins are small enough that real-world differences may be imperceptible outside synthetic workloads.
