Core i5-9600KF vs Xeon W-2145 specs and performance

In our benchmarks, the Xeon W-2145 beats the Core i5-9600KF in overall performance. Despite this, the Core i5-9600KF has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

With info from our database, we find that the Xeon W-2145 has slightly more cores with 8 cores whereas the Core i5-9600KF has 6 cores. It also has more threads than the Core i5-9600KF. Both the Core i5-9600KF and Xeon W-2145 have the same clock speed. Despite this, the Core i5-9600KF has a slightly higher turbo speed. A Core i5-9600KF CPU outputs less heat than a Xeon W-2145 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. For instance, the Core i5-9600KF has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
