Core i9-12900 vs Xeon Gold 6154 specs and performance
Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Xeon Gold 6154 performs better than the Core i9-12900. Despite this, the Core i9-12900 has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.
When comparing core counts for these CPUs, we notice that the Xeon Gold 6154 has slightly more cores with 18 cores compared to the Core i9-12900 that has 16 cores. It also has more threads than the Core i9-12900. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Xeon Gold 6154 has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i9-12900. Despite this, the Core i9-12900 has a slightly higher turbo speed. A Core i9-12900 CPU outputs less heat than a Xeon Gold 6154 CPU because of its significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption. The cache sizes of these CPUs are different. Indeed, the Xeon Gold 6154 has slightly more L2 cache than the Core i9-12900. Despite this, the Core i9-12900 has slightly more L3 cache compared to the Xeon Gold 6154.
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 i9-12900 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
