Xeon W-2123 vs Xeon E3-1505M v6 specs and performance

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Xeon W-2123 performs better than the Xeon E3-1505M v6. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Xeon E3-1505M v6 in all gaming tests too.

Our spec comparison shows that they have an identical amount of cores and the same number of threads. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Xeon W-2123 has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Xeon E3-1505M v6. Despite this, the Xeon E3-1505M v6 has a slightly higher turbo speed. The Xeon E3-1505M v6 outputs less heat than Xeon W-2123 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 W-2123 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
