Overview
SummaryThe Intel Xeon W-2175 is a server processor with 14 cores and 28 threads, built on the Skylake architecture. It launched in Jul 2017. Clocks run from 2.5 GHz base to 4.3 GHz boost. A 19-MB L3 cache backs the cores (2.4 MB per core). It addresses DDR4 memory up to 512 GB across 4 channels. The chip drops into the FCLGA2066 socket and exposes PCIe 3.0 (48 lanes). Rated TDP is 140 W. Notable platform capabilities: AVX-512, Extended Page Tables (EPT).
Performance
12 metricsThe Intel Xeon W-2175 scores 2,469 in single-core performance and 23,447 in multi-core performance (PassMark CPU Mark ratings). From those two ratings Feex computes 7,609 for overall performance, 18,697 for productivity performance, 17,340 for creator performance, 26,231 for engineering performance and 13,269 for gaming performance. Its multi-core throughput works out to 1,675 per core, 837 per thread and 168 per watt. Its computed efficiency index is 643. Its performance index is 94, so its overall performance is 6% 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.
