Core i7-11850H vs Xeon W-11855M benchmarks

In our benchmarks, the Xeon W-11855M beats the Core i7-11850H in overall performance. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i7-11850H in all gaming tests too.

With info from our database, we find that the Core i7-11850H has slightly more cores with 8 cores whereas the Xeon W-11855M has 6 cores. It also has more threads than the Xeon W-11855M. Our comparison shows that the Xeon W-11855M has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i7-11850H. Also, the Xeon W-11855M has a slightly higher turbo speed. Both these chips have an identical TDP (Thermal Design Power). 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 i7-11850H has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
