Core i7-7800X vs Xeon W-10855M specs and performance

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Core i7-7800X is faster than the Xeon W-10855M. Despite this, the Xeon W-10855M has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

Info from our database shows that they both have the same core count and the same number of threads. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Core i7-7800X has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Xeon W-10855M. Despite this, the Xeon W-10855M has a slightly higher turbo speed. The Xeon W-10855M outputs less heat than Core i7-7800X 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 i7-7800X has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
