Xeon E5-2637 v3 vs Xeon W-2133 benchmarks

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Xeon E5-2637 v3 is faster than the Xeon W-2133. Despite this, the Xeon W-2133 has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

In terms of the number of cores of each of these CPUs, the Xeon W-2133 has significantly more cores than the Xeon E5-2637 v3. Indeed, the Xeon W-2133 has 6 cores compared to 4 cores found in the Xeon E5-2637 v3. It also has more threads than the Xeon E5-2637 v3. Our comparison shows that the Xeon W-2133 has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Xeon E5-2637 v3. Also, the Xeon W-2133 has a slightly higher turbo speed. A Xeon E5-2637 v3 CPU outputs less heat than a Xeon W-2133 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 Xeon E5-2637 v3 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
