Ryzen 7 2700X vs Xeon W-2135 benchmarks

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Ryzen 7 2700X performs better than the Xeon W-2135. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Xeon W-2135 in all gaming tests too.

In terms of the number of cores of each of these CPUs, the Ryzen 7 2700X has slightly more cores than the Xeon W-2135. Indeed, the Ryzen 7 2700X has 8 cores compared to 6 cores found in the Xeon W-2135. It also has more threads than the Xeon W-2135. Both the Ryzen 7 2700X and Xeon W-2135 have the same clock speed. Despite this, the Xeon W-2135 has a slightly higher turbo speed. A Ryzen 7 2700X CPU outputs less heat than a Xeon W-2135 CPU because of its 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 Ryzen 7 2700X has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
