Core i7-6920HQ vs Xeon W-2223 specs and performance

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Xeon W-2223 is faster than the Core i7-6920HQ. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i7-6920HQ 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 Xeon W-2223 has a slightly higher clock speed than the Core i7-6920HQ. Also, the Xeon W-2223 has a slightly higher turbo speed. A Core i7-6920HQ CPU outputs less heat than a Xeon W-2223 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 i7-6920HQ has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
