Intel® Xeon™ W-1250

The Intel Xeon W-1250 is a workstation processor with 6 cores and 12 threads, built on the Comet Lake architecture (14 nm process). It launched in Apr 2020. Clocks run from 3.3 GHz base to 4.7 GHz boost. A 12-MB L3 cache backs the cores (2.3 MB per core). It addresses DDR4 memory up to 128 GB across 2 channels. The chip drops into the FCLGA1200 socket and exposes PCIe 3.0 (16 lanes). Rated TDP is 80 W. Notable platform capabilities: Extended Page Tables (EPT).

The Intel Xeon W-1250 scores 2,818 in single-core performance and 13,667 in multi-core performance (PassMark CPU Mark ratings). From those two ratings Feex computes 6,206 for overall performance, 12,829 for productivity performance, 12,589 for creator performance, 13,582 for engineering performance and 11,871 for gaming performance. Its multi-core throughput works out to 2,278 per core, 1,139 per thread and 171 per watt. Its computed efficiency index is 694. Its performance index is 77, so its overall performance is 23% below the Intel Core i5-12400 (index 100). Each bar shows the score as a share of a reference ceiling, which is the larger of the 99th-percentile score across the Feex CPU database and a fixed baseline.

Scores for individual PassMark CPU Mark test categories. Higher is better. These are measured test scores, not computed from the single-core and multi-core ratings.

In the individual workload tests the Intel Xeon W-1250 scores 46,064 in integer math, 28,957 in floating-point math, 206,078 in compression, 4,801 in cryptography, 777 in physics simulation, 13,679 in vector SIMD, 38 in the prime sieve and 25,936 in sorting. Higher is better. Compared with the Intel Core i5-12400, it is 22% below in integer math, 37% below in floating-point math, 10% below in compression, 58% below in cryptography, 29% below in physics simulation, 12% below in vector SIMD, 43% below in the prime sieve and 14% above in sorting. Each bar shows the score as a share of that workload's reference ceiling, the larger of the 99th-percentile score across CPUs with a recorded value and a fixed baseline.

The Intel Xeon W-1250 has 6 physical cores and runs 12 logical threads. It runs 2 threads per core. It runs at a base clock of 3.30 GHz and boosts up to 4.70 GHz.

The Intel Xeon W-1250 is a workstation processor, belongs to the Intel Xeon W family, uses the Comet Lake architecture, carries the codename Comet Lake and is manufactured on a 14 nm process. It launched in Apr 2020.

The Intel Xeon W-1250 has 384 KB of L1 cache, 1.50 MB of L2 cache and 12 MB of L3 cache. That adds up to about 13.9 MB of cache, or 2.31 MB per core. Each core has 256 KB of private L2 cache.

The Intel Xeon W-1250 has a 3-level cache hierarchy: L1 at 384 KB, L2 at 1.5 MB and L3 at 12 MB. L3 is the largest level and makes up about 86% of the cache listed here.

The Intel Xeon W-1250 supports DDR4 memory, addresses up to 128 GB of memory and uses 2 memory channels. It does not support DDR5 and LPDDR memory.
