Core i3-9300 vs Xeon W-2125 comparison

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Xeon W-2125 performs better than the Core i3-9300. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i3-9300 in all gaming tests too.

When comparing these CPUs we notice that they have the same number of cores but the Xeon W-2125 has more threads. With our hardware info, we find that the Xeon W-2125 has a slightly higher clock speed than the Core i3-9300. Also, the Xeon W-2125 has a slightly higher turbo speed. A Core i3-9300 CPU outputs less heat than a Xeon W-2125 CPU because of its significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption.

Modern CPUs generally have more logical cores than physical cores, this means that each core is split into multiple virtual cores, improving efficiency for parallel workloads. For instance, the Core i3-9300 has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
