Xeon W-11855M vs Ryzen 5 8500G specs and performance

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Xeon W-11855M is faster than the Ryzen 5 8500G. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Ryzen 5 8500G in all gaming tests too.

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 Ryzen 5 8500G has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Xeon W-11855M. Also, the Ryzen 5 8500G has a slightly higher turbo speed. A Xeon W-11855M CPU outputs less heat than a Ryzen 5 8500G CPU because of its 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 W-11855M has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
