Intel Core i7-1375PRE vs Intel Xeon Gold 5315Y Comparison

The Intel Xeon Gold 5315Y and Intel Core i7-1375PRE occupy entirely different corners of the processor market, yet their benchmark scores land them in the same performance percentile. The Xeon Gold 5315Y is a server/workstation part built for the Socket 4189 platform, while the Core i7-1375PRE is a mobile processor on BGA 1744. Despite these differences, the data shows the Core i7-1375PRE wins all six head-to-head benchmark comparisons, albeit by a narrow margin of 1.2% in each test. The Xeon Gold 5315Y counters with a substantially higher 140W TDP, eight-channel DDR4 memory support, and 64 PCIe Gen 4 lanes, making it the choice for memory-bandwidth-hungry server workloads. The Core i7-1375PRE, with its 14 cores, 20 threads, and 4.80 GHz boost clock, is the better pick for single-threaded responsiveness and mobile deployments where the 28W TDP and integrated Iris Xe Graphics 96EU matter more.

The Verdict

The data presents a clear split: the Intel Core i7-1375PRE is the superior performer in every benchmark recorded, but the Intel Xeon Gold 5315Y is the only one of the two that supports ECC memory. If your workload demands error-correcting memory and massive memory bandwidth, the Xeon Gold 5315Y with its eight-channel DDR4 support and 187.7 GB/s memory bandwidth is the only viable option between the two. The Core i7-1375PRE, by contrast, is dual-channel only and lacks ECC support entirely.

For raw compute in the tested benchmarks, the Core i7-1375PRE edges out the Xeon Gold 5315Y across the board. In Cinebench R23 multi-core, the Core i7-1375PRE scores 17236 versus the Xeon's 17027, a 1.2% lead. The single-core results tell the same story: 2433 versus 2403 in R23 single-core. The Core i7-1375PRE also wins in Geekbench multi-core, where the Xeon Gold 5315Y scores 8127, though no Geekbench result is available for the Core i7-1375PRE in the head-to-head data.

The Xeon Gold 5315Y's 59th percentile ranking among all CPUs matches the Core i7-1375PRE's 59th percentile, but the Core i7-1375PRE's average benchmark score of 4985 is higher than the Xeon's 4887. The Core i7-1375PRE's nearest rival is the Intel Core i5-12600HE at 4980, a 0.1% difference, while the Xeon Gold 5315Y sits 0.2% above the AMD Ryzen 7 PRO 4750G at 4879. Pick the Xeon Gold 5315Y for server-grade reliability features; pick the Core i7-1375PRE for higher benchmark scores and mobile integration.

Architecture Differences

The Intel Xeon Gold 5315Y is built on the Ice Lake-SP architecture with a 10 nm process node, while the Intel Core i7-1375PRE uses Raptor Lake-P, also on a 10 nm node. The Xeon Gold 5315Y packs 8 cores and 16 threads, whereas the Core i7-1375PRE offers 14 cores and 20 threads. Core counts alone explain part of the performance gap, but clock speeds tell a more dramatic story. The Xeon Gold 5315Y has a base clock of 3.20 GHz and a boost clock of 3.60 GHz, while the Core i7-1375PRE starts at 1900.00 MHz base and boosts to 4.80 GHz. That 1.20 GHz boost advantage gives the mobile chip a significant single-thread edge.

Cache hierarchies differ substantially. The Xeon Gold 5315Y provides 64 KB of L1 cache per core, 1 MB of L2 per core, and 12 MB of shared L3. The Core i7-1375PRE offers 80 KB of L1 per core, 2 MB of L2 per core, and 24 MB of shared L3. The Core i7-1375PRE also has a known die size of 217 mm², while the Xeon Gold 5315Y's die size is not recorded.

Memory support diverges sharply. The Xeon Gold 5315Y supports DDR4 with an eight-channel memory bus and a memory bandwidth of 187.7 GB/s, plus ECC memory support. The Core i7-1375PRE supports both DDR4 and DDR5 with a dual-channel memory bus, but its memory bandwidth is not listed, and it lacks ECC support. PCIe lanes also differ: the Xeon Gold 5315Y provides 64 lanes of Gen 4, while the Core i7-1375PRE offers 20 lanes of Gen 4. The Core i7-1375PRE includes integrated Iris Xe Graphics 96EU, while the Xeon Gold 5315Y has no integrated graphics.

The Xeon Gold 5315Y does have one benchmark result that the Core i7-1375PRE lacks: Geekbench multi-core, where it scores 8127, and Geekbench single-core at 1422. Since no Geekbench result exists for the Core i7-1375PRE, no direct comparison is possible on that test. The average benchmark scores reflect the overall picture: the Core i7-1375PRE averages 4985, while the Xeon Gold 5315Y averages 4887, a difference of 98 points. Both CPUs sit at the 59th percentile of all CPUs, but the Core i7-1375PRE's nearest rival, the Intel Core i5-12600HE, is 0.1% behind, while the Xeon Gold 5315Y's nearest rival, the AMD Ryzen 7 PRO 4750G, is 0.2% behind. The narrow margins in every benchmark reinforce that these are closely matched in compute, with the Core i7-1375PRE taking a small but consistent lead across all Cinebench tests.
