Core i7-10870H vs Xeon W-2135 benchmarks

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Xeon W-2135 performs better than the Core i7-10870H. Despite this, the Core i7-10870H has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

In terms of the number of cores of each of these CPUs, the Core i7-10870H has slightly more cores than the Xeon W-2135. Indeed, the Core i7-10870H has 8 cores compared to 6 cores found in the Xeon W-2135. It also has more threads than the Xeon W-2135. Our comparison shows that the Xeon W-2135 has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the Core i7-10870H. Despite this, the Core i7-10870H has a slightly higher turbo speed. A Core i7-10870H CPU outputs less heat than a Xeon W-2135 CPU because of its 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 i7-10870H has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
