Core i9-11900H vs Xeon W-11855M specs and performance

In our benchmarks, the Core i9-11900H beats the Xeon W-11855M in overall performance. Despite this, the Xeon W-11855M has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

With info from our database, we find that the Core i9-11900H 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. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Xeon W-11855M has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i9-11900H. In addition, both chips have the same 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.

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 i9-11900H has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
