Xeon W-2223 vs Core i3-N305 benchmarks

In our benchmarks, the Core i3-N305 beats the Xeon W-2223 in overall performance. Despite this, the Xeon W-2223 has the advantage in our gaming benchmark.

In terms of the number of cores of each of these CPUs, the Core i3-N305 has significantly more cores than the Xeon W-2223. Indeed, the Core i3-N305 has 8 cores compared to 4 cores found in the Xeon W-2223. But they both have the same number of threads. With our hardware info, we find that the Xeon W-2223 has a significantly higher clock speed than the Core i3-N305.

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-2223 has more threads than cores. Each physical core is split into multiple threads.
