Intel Xeon W-2135 vs AMD Ryzen 5 Microsoft Surface Edition

Xeon W-2135 vs Ryzen 5 Microsoft Surface Edition comparison

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Xeon W-2135 performs better than the Ryzen 5 Microsoft Surface Edition. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Ryzen 5 Microsoft Surface Edition 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-2135 has a significantly higher clock speed compared to the Ryzen 5 Microsoft Surface Edition.

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-2135 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
