Xeon W-2145 vs Core Ultra 5 125H comparison

Our benchmark analysis concludes that the Core Ultra 5 125H performs better than the Xeon W-2145. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Xeon W-2145 in all gaming tests too.

When comparing core counts for these CPUs, we notice that the Core Ultra 5 125H has significantly more cores with 14 cores compared to the Xeon W-2145 that has 8 cores. It also has more threads than the Xeon W-2145. With our hardware info, we find that the Xeon W-2145 has a slightly higher clock speed than the Core Ultra 5 125H. Furthermore, both these CPUs have identical turbo speeds.

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-2145 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
