Xeon W-2135 vs Ryzen 5 8500G benchmarks

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Xeon W-2135 is faster than the Ryzen 5 8500G. Despite this, the Ryzen 5 8500G has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

When comparing these CPUs we notice that they have the same number of cores and the same number of threads. Our comparison shows that the Xeon W-2135 has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Ryzen 5 8500G. Despite this, the Ryzen 5 8500G has a slightly higher turbo speed. The Ryzen 5 8500G outputs less heat than Xeon W-2135 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-2135 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
