Xeon E3-1280 v3 vs Xeon W-2223 comparison

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Xeon E3-1280 v3 is faster than the Xeon W-2223. Despite this, the Xeon W-2223 has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

When comparing these CPUs we notice that they have the same number of cores and the same number of threads. Both the Xeon E3-1280 v3 and Xeon W-2223 have the same clock speed. Despite this, the Xeon E3-1280 v3 has a slightly higher turbo speed. A Xeon E3-1280 v3 CPU outputs less heat than a Xeon W-2223 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 Xeon E3-1280 v3 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
