Intel Xeon E5-2643 v2 vs Intel Xeon W-10855M

Xeon E5-2643 v2 vs Xeon W-10855M benchmarks

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Xeon E5-2643 v2 performs better than the Xeon W-10855M. Despite this, the Xeon W-10855M 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. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Xeon E5-2643 v2 has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Xeon W-10855M. Despite this, the Xeon W-10855M has a slightly higher turbo speed. The Xeon W-10855M outputs less heat than Xeon E5-2643 v2 thanks to a 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 E5-2643 v2 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
