Intel Xeon E5-2676 v3 vs Intel Xeon W-2133

Xeon E5-2676 v3 vs Xeon W-2133 specs and performance

In our benchmarks, the Xeon E5-2676 v3 beats the Xeon W-2133 in overall performance. 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 E5-2676 v3 has significantly more cores than the Xeon W-2133. Indeed, the Xeon E5-2676 v3 has 12 cores compared to 6 cores found in the Xeon W-2133. It also has more threads than the Xeon W-2133. A Xeon E5-2676 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.

The more cores a CPU has, the better the overall performance will be in parallel workloads such as multitasking. Many CPUs have more threads than cores, this means that each physical core is split into multiple logical cores, making them more efficient. Indeed, the Xeon E5-2676 v3 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
