Xeon W-11855M vs EPYC 74F3 specs and performance

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the EPYC 74F3 performs better than the Xeon W-11855M. Despite this, the Xeon W-11855M has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

With info from our database, we find that the EPYC 74F3 has significantly more cores with 9 cores whereas the Xeon W-11855M has 6 cores. It also has more threads than the Xeon W-11855M. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Xeon W-11855M has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the EPYC 74F3. A Xeon W-11855M CPU outputs less heat than a EPYC 74F3 CPU because of its 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 W-11855M has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
