Intel Core i5-10400 vs Intel Xeon W-2133

Core i5-10400 vs Xeon W-2133 specs and performance

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Core i5-10400 performs better than the Xeon W-2133. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Xeon W-2133 in all gaming tests too.

When comparing these CPUs we notice that they have the same number of cores and the same number of threads. With our hardware info, we find that the Xeon W-2133 has a slightly higher clock speed than the Core i5-10400. Despite this, the Core i5-10400 has a slightly higher turbo speed. A Core i5-10400 CPU outputs less heat than a Xeon W-2133 CPU because of its significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption.

Most CPUs have more threads than cores. This technology, colloquially called hyperthreading, improves performance by splitting a core into multiple virtual ones. This provides more efficient utilisation of a core. Indeed, the Core i5-10400 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
