Intel® Xeon™ W-2295

The Intel Xeon W-2295 is a workstation processor with 18 cores and 36 threads, built on the Cascade Lake architecture. It launched in Oct 2019. Clocks run from 3.0 GHz base to 4.6 GHz boost. A 24.75-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 165 W. Notable platform capabilities: AVX-512, Extended Page Tables (EPT).

The Intel Xeon W-2295 scores 2,531 in single-core performance and 29,639 in multi-core performance (PassMark CPU Mark ratings). From those two ratings Feex computes 8,661 for overall performance, 22,809 for productivity performance, 20,857 for creator performance, 35,011 for engineering performance and 15,003 for gaming performance. Its multi-core throughput works out to 1,647 per core, 823 per thread and 180 per watt. Its computed efficiency index is 674. Its performance index is 107, so its overall performance is 7% above 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-2295 scores 116,778 in integer math, 71,594 in floating-point math, 470,932 in compression, 10,979 in cryptography, 1,648 in physics simulation, 36,057 in vector SIMD, 115 in the prime sieve and 60,104 in sorting. Higher is better. Compared with the Intel Core i5-12400, it is 98% above in integer math, 56% above in floating-point math, 107% above in compression, 4% below in cryptography, 51% above in physics simulation, 132% above in vector SIMD, 72% above in the prime sieve and 165% 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-2295 has 18 physical cores and runs 36 logical threads. It runs 2 threads per core. It runs at a base clock of 3.00 GHz and boosts up to 4.60 GHz.
