9-Way Intel Xeon E3 v5 Skylake Benchmarks On Ubuntu Linux

With the HMMer scientific test, there's finally a result where the AMD FX-8370 doesn't come in last place. However, here, the FX-8370 125 Watt 4GHz+ processor is only coming out ahead of the E3-1235L v5 Skylake processor that has a 25 Watt TDP and 3.0GHz Turbo frequency.

With the heavily multi-threaded benchmark, it's a similar story with the AMD FX-8370 only competing with the low-end, lower-power Intel processors. Be sure to see the performance-per-Watt benchmarks at the end of this article!

Any of the recent Intel Xeon CPUs do a mighty fine job at x264 video encoding.
