Xeon E5-1660 v4 vs Xeon W-2133 specs and performance

In our benchmarks, the Xeon E5-1660 v4 beats the Xeon W-2133 in overall performance. Despite this, the Xeon W-2133 has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

When comparing core counts for these CPUs, we notice that the Xeon E5-1660 v4 has slightly more cores with 8 cores compared to the Xeon W-2133 that has 6 cores. It also has more threads than the Xeon W-2133. With our hardware info, we find that the Xeon W-2133 has a slightly higher clock speed than the Xeon E5-1660 v4. Also, the Xeon W-2133 has a slightly higher turbo speed. Both these chips have an identical TDP (Thermal Design Power). 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 E5-1660 v4 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
