Intel Core i7-11700F vs Intel Xeon W-11855M

Core i7-11700F vs Xeon W-11855M comparison

In our benchmarks, the Core i7-11700F beats the Xeon W-11855M in overall performance. Despite this, the Xeon W-11855M has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

In terms of the number of cores of each of these CPUs, the Core i7-11700F has slightly more cores than the Xeon W-11855M. Indeed, the Core i7-11700F has 8 cores compared to 6 cores found in the Xeon W-11855M. It also has more threads than the Xeon W-11855M. With our hardware info, we find that the Xeon W-11855M has a slightly higher clock speed than the Core i7-11700F. Furthermore, both these CPUs have identical turbo speeds. The Xeon W-11855M outputs less heat than Core i7-11700F 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 i7-11700F has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
