Intel Core i9-10900 vs Intel Xeon W-11855M

Core i9-10900 vs Xeon W-11855M benchmarks

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Core i9-10900 is faster than the Xeon W-11855M. Despite this, the Xeon W-11855M has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

When comparing core counts for these CPUs, we notice that the Core i9-10900 has significantly more cores with 10 cores compared to the Xeon W-11855M that has 6 cores. It also has more threads than the Xeon W-11855M. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Xeon W-11855M has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i9-10900. Despite this, the Core i9-10900 has a slightly higher turbo speed. The Xeon W-11855M outputs less heat than Core i9-10900 thanks to a significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption.

Modern CPUs generally have more logical cores than physical cores, this means that each core is split into multiple virtual cores, improving efficiency for parallel workloads. Indeed, the Core i9-10900 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
