Xeon W-2125 vs Xeon E3-1535M v6 specs and performance

In our benchmarks, the Xeon E3-1535M v6 beats the Xeon W-2125 in overall performance. Despite this, the Xeon W-2125 has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

Info from our database shows that they both have the same core count and the same number of threads. With our hardware info, we find that the Xeon W-2125 has a slightly higher clock speed than the Xeon E3-1535M v6. Also, the Xeon W-2125 has a slightly higher turbo speed. The Xeon E3-1535M v6 outputs less heat than Xeon W-2125 thanks to a significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption.

Most CPUs have more threads than cores. This technology, colloquially called hyperthreading, improves performance by splitting a core into multiple virtual ones. This provides more efficient utilisation of a core. Indeed, the Xeon W-2125 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
