Intel® Xeon™ W-2235

The Intel Xeon W-2235 is a workstation processor with 6 cores and 12 threads, built on the Cascade Lake architecture. It launched in Oct 2019. Clocks run from 3.8 GHz base to 4.6 GHz boost. A 8.25-MB L3 cache backs the cores (2.4 MB per core). It addresses DDR4 memory up to 1 GB across 4 channels. The chip drops into the FCLGA2066 socket and exposes PCIe 3.0 (48 lanes). Rated TDP is 130 W. Notable platform capabilities: AVX-512, Extended Page Tables (EPT).

The Intel Xeon W-2235 scores 2,604 in single-core performance and 14,184 in multi-core performance (PassMark CPU Mark ratings). From those two ratings Feex computes 6,077 for overall performance, 12,865 for productivity performance, 12,488 for creator performance, 14,095 for engineering performance and 11,358 for gaming performance. Its multi-core throughput works out to 2,364 per core, 1,182 per thread and 109 per watt. Its computed efficiency index is 533. Its performance index is 75, so its overall performance is 25% 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-2235 scores 45,895 in integer math, 28,415 in floating-point math, 200,913 in compression, 4,865 in cryptography, 899 in physics simulation, 16,594 in vector SIMD, 49 in the prime sieve and 25,338 in sorting. Higher is better. Compared with the Intel Core i5-12400, it is 22% below in integer math, 38% below in floating-point math, 12% below in compression, 58% below in cryptography, 18% below in physics simulation, 7% above in vector SIMD, 27% below in the prime sieve and 12% 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-2235 has 6 physical cores and runs 12 logical threads. It runs 2 threads per core. It runs at a base clock of 3.80 GHz and boosts up to 4.60 GHz.
