Overview
SummaryThe Intel Xeon W-2150B is a server processor with 10 cores and 20 threads. It launched in Dec 2017. Clocks run from 3.0 GHz base to 4.5 GHz boost. A 13.75-MB L3 cache backs the cores (2.4 MB per core). It supports DDR4 memory. It uses the FCLGA2066 socket. Rated TDP is 120 W. Notable platform capabilities: AVX-512.
Performance
12 metricsThe Intel Xeon W-2150B scores 2,652 in single-core performance and 20,409 in multi-core performance (PassMark CPU Mark ratings). From those two ratings Feex computes 7,357 for overall performance, 16,979 for productivity performance, 15,999 for creator performance, 21,557 for engineering performance and 13,058 for gaming performance. Its multi-core throughput works out to 2,041 per core, 1,020 per thread and 170 per watt. Its computed efficiency index is 672. Its performance index is 91, so its overall performance is 9% 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.
How these scores are computed
Single-core and multi-core performance are PassMark CPU Mark single-thread and multi-thread ratings. Every other figure on this page's performance section is computed by Feex from those two ratings plus core count, thread count and TDP, so it is a derived value and not a separate benchmark run.
- Overall performance is the geometric mean of the two ratings: the square root of single-core times multi-core.
- Productivity performance is 0.65 times multi-core plus 1.4 times single-core.
- Creator performance is 0.55 times multi-core plus 1.8 times single-core.
- Engineering performance is multi-core times the smaller of 1.4 and (0.9 plus cores divided by 64).
- Gaming performance is 3 times single-core plus 0.25 times multi-core.
- Performance per core, per thread and per watt divide the multi-core rating by physical cores, logical threads and TDP in watts.
- The efficiency index is the square root of single-core times multi-core, divided by the square root of TDP.
- The performance index is overall performance divided by the overall performance of the Intel Core i5-12400 (8,069), times 100.
Workload Benchmarks
8 workloadsScores 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-2150B scores 68,101 in integer math, 41,170 in floating-point math, 315,137 in compression, 7,861 in cryptography, 1,303 in physics simulation, 20,450 in vector SIMD, 75 in the prime sieve and 36,947 in sorting. Higher is better. Compared with the Intel Core i5-12400, it is 16% above in integer math, 10% below in floating-point math, 38% above in compression, 32% below in cryptography, 20% above in physics simulation, 32% above in vector SIMD, 12% above in the prime sieve and 63% 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.
