Ryzen 7 5800X vs Xeon W-2135 benchmarks

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Ryzen 7 5800X is faster than the Xeon W-2135. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Xeon W-2135 in all gaming tests too.

When comparing core counts for these CPUs, we notice that the Ryzen 7 5800X has slightly more cores with 8 cores compared to the Xeon W-2135 that has 6 cores. It also has more threads than the Xeon W-2135. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Ryzen 7 5800X has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Xeon W-2135. Also, the Ryzen 7 5800X has a slightly higher turbo speed. A Ryzen 7 5800X 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.

The more cores a CPU has, the better the overall performance will be in parallel workloads such as multitasking. Many CPUs have more threads than cores, this means that each physical core is split into multiple logical cores, making them more efficient. Indeed, the Ryzen 7 5800X has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
