Ryzen 5 3600XT vs Xeon W-2155 benchmarks

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Xeon W-2155 performs better than the Ryzen 5 3600XT. Despite this, the Ryzen 5 3600XT has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

When comparing core counts for these CPUs, we notice that the Xeon W-2155 has significantly more cores with 10 cores compared to the Ryzen 5 3600XT that has 6 cores. It also has more threads than the Ryzen 5 3600XT. With our hardware info, we find that the Ryzen 5 3600XT has a slightly higher clock speed than the Xeon W-2155. In addition, both chips have the same turbo speed. A Ryzen 5 3600XT CPU outputs less heat than a Xeon W-2155 CPU because of its 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 Ryzen 5 3600XT has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
