Ryzen 7 1700 vs Xeon W-2135 specs and performance

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Xeon W-2135 is faster than the Ryzen 7 1700. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Ryzen 7 1700 in all gaming tests too.

With info from our database, we find that the Ryzen 7 1700 has slightly more cores with 8 cores whereas the Xeon W-2135 has 6 cores. It also has more threads than the Xeon W-2135. With our hardware info, we find that the Xeon W-2135 has a slightly higher clock speed than the Ryzen 7 1700. Also, the Xeon W-2135 has a slightly higher turbo speed. A Ryzen 7 1700 CPU outputs less heat than a Xeon W-2135 CPU because of its significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption.

Most CPUs have more threads than cores. This technology, colloquially called hyperthreading, improves performance by splitting a core into multiple virtual ones. This provides more efficient utilisation of a core. Indeed, the Ryzen 7 1700 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
