Core i5-11600KF vs Xeon W-11855M comparison

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Core i5-11600KF performs better than the Xeon W-11855M. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Xeon W-11855M in all gaming tests too.

Info from our database shows that they both have the same core count and the same number of threads. With our hardware info, we find that the Core i5-11600KF has a slightly higher clock speed than the Xeon W-11855M. Furthermore, both these CPUs have identical turbo speeds. The Xeon W-11855M outputs less heat than Core i5-11600KF thanks to a significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption.

The more cores a CPU has, the better the overall performance will be in parallel workloads such as multitasking. Many CPUs have more threads than cores, this means that each physical core is split into multiple logical cores, making them more efficient. Indeed, the Core i5-11600KF has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
