Xeon E5-2696 v3 vs Xeon W-11855M comparison

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Xeon E5-2696 v3 is faster than the Xeon W-11855M. Despite this, the Xeon W-11855M has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

In terms of the number of cores of each of these CPUs, the Xeon E5-2696 v3 has significantly more cores than the Xeon W-11855M. Indeed, the Xeon E5-2696 v3 has 18 cores compared to 6 cores found in the Xeon W-11855M. It also has more threads than the Xeon W-11855M. The Xeon W-11855M outputs less heat than Xeon E5-2696 v3 thanks to a significantly 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 E5-2696 v3 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
