How do the benchmark scores compare?
Intel Xeon E-2236 @ 3.40GHz has a PassMark single-core score of 2,807, compared with 2,428 for Intel Xeon E-2278GEL @ 2.00GHz. Intel Xeon E-2236 @ 3.40GHz has the higher score in this benchmark.
Intel Xeon E-2236 @ 3.40GHz has a PassMark multicore score of 13,869, compared with 12,024 for Intel Xeon E-2278GEL @ 2.00GHz. Intel Xeon E-2236 @ 3.40GHz has the higher score in this benchmark.
Single-core scores describe one thread; multicore scores describe aggregate CPU throughput. These results do not establish which CPU is faster in every application. Compare platform support and total upgrade cost before buying.
Intel Xeon E-2236 @ 3.40GHz lists FCLGA1151-2; Intel Xeon E-2278GEL @ 2.00GHz lists FCLGA1151-2. Check the motherboard manufacturer's CPU support list and BIOS requirements. If the required platform changes, include motherboard, memory and cooling costs; the CPU price alone is not the full upgrade cost.

The retrieval date records when Find Me a CPU collected the source data. It is not a benchmark test date. Prices are USD estimates from the source, converted for other currencies, rather than live retailer offers. Release / first seen means the CPU first appeared on PassMark charts, not necessarily its launch date.
Benchmark scores do not predict frame rates in a particular game. Typical TDP is a specification, not measured electricity use. A matching socket does not confirm motherboard support; check the manufacturer's CPU support list and BIOS requirements.
