Intel® Xeon™ W-3245M

The Intel Xeon W-3245M is a workstation processor with 16 cores and 32 threads, built on the Cascade Lake architecture. It launched in Apr 2019. Clocks run from 3.2 GHz base to 4.4 GHz boost. A 22-MB L3 cache backs the cores (2.4 MB per core). It addresses DDR4 memory up to 2 GB across 6 channels. The chip drops into the FCLGA3647 socket and exposes PCIe 3.0 (64 lanes). Rated TDP is 205 W. Notable platform capabilities: AVX-512, Extended Page Tables (EPT).

The Intel Xeon W-3245M scores 2,623 in single-core performance and 28,494 in multi-core performance (PassMark CPU Mark ratings). From those two ratings Feex computes 8,645 for overall performance, 22,193 for productivity performance, 20,393 for creator performance, 32,768 for engineering performance and 14,993 for gaming performance. Its multi-core throughput works out to 1,781 per core, 890 per thread and 139 per watt. Its computed efficiency index is 604. 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-3245M scores 114,010 in integer math, 68,555 in floating-point math, 506,084 in compression, 11,763 in cryptography, 1,884 in physics simulation, 29,618 in vector SIMD, 117 in the prime sieve and 57,816 in sorting. Higher is better. Compared with the Intel Core i5-12400, it is 94% above in integer math, 49% above in floating-point math, 122% above in compression, 2% above in cryptography, 73% above in physics simulation, 91% above in vector SIMD, 75% above in the prime sieve and 155% 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-3245M has 16 physical cores and runs 32 logical threads. It runs 2 threads per core. It runs at a base clock of 3.20 GHz and boosts up to 4.40 GHz.
