Core i9-9820X vs Xeon W-2125 benchmarks

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Core i9-9820X performs better than the Xeon W-2125. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Xeon W-2125 in all gaming tests too.

When comparing core counts for these CPUs, we notice that the Core i9-9820X has significantly more cores with 10 cores compared to the Xeon W-2125 that has 4 cores. It also has more threads than the Xeon W-2125. Our comparison shows that the Xeon W-2125 has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i9-9820X. Also, the Xeon W-2125 has a slightly higher turbo speed. The Xeon W-2125 outputs less heat than Core i9-9820X thanks to a slightly 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 i9-9820X has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
