Intel Xeon E3-1535M v6 vs Intel Xeon W3680

Xeon E3-1535M v6 vs Xeon W3680 benchmarks

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Xeon W3680 is faster than the Xeon E3-1535M v6. Despite this, the Xeon E3-1535M v6 has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

In terms of the number of cores of each of these CPUs, the Xeon W3680 has significantly more cores than the Xeon E3-1535M v6. Indeed, the Xeon W3680 has 6 cores compared to 4 cores found in the Xeon E3-1535M v6. It also has more threads than the Xeon E3-1535M v6. Our comparison shows that the Xeon W3680 has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Xeon E3-1535M v6. Despite this, the Xeon E3-1535M v6 has a slightly higher turbo speed. A Xeon E3-1535M v6 CPU outputs less heat than a Xeon W3680 CPU because of its significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption. The cache sizes of these CPUs are different. Indeed, the Xeon W3680 has significantly more L2 cache than the Xeon E3-1535M v6

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 Xeon E3-1535M v6 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
