Intel Atom C3858 @ 2.00GHz vs Intel Xeon W-2104 @ 3.20GHz

Intel Atom C3858 @ 2.00GHz and Intel Xeon W-2104 @ 3.20GHz are both server processors listed on PassMark CPU Benchmarks. This page sets their benchmark scores, estimated prices, and specifications side by side using the same source data for both, so the figures are directly comparable.

Intel Atom C3858 @ 2.00GHz lists FCBGA1310 and Intel Xeon W-2104 @ 3.20GHz lists FCLGA2066, so moving between them is likely to be a platform change. Budget for a motherboard, memory, and cooling as well as the processor.

Intel Atom C3858 @ 2.00GHz has a PassMark single-core score of 702, compared with 1,765 for Intel Xeon W-2104 @ 3.20GHz. Intel Xeon W-2104 @ 3.20GHz has the higher score in this benchmark.

Intel Atom C3858 @ 2.00GHz has a PassMark multicore score of 5,040, compared with 5,500 for Intel Xeon W-2104 @ 3.20GHz. Intel Xeon W-2104 @ 3.20GHz has the higher score in this benchmark.

Single-core scores describe one thread; multicore scores describe aggregate CPU throughput. These results do not establish which CPU is faster in every application. Compare platform support and total upgrade cost before buying.

Intel Atom C3858 @ 2.00GHz lists FCBGA1310; Intel Xeon W-2104 @ 3.20GHz lists FCLGA2066. Check the motherboard manufacturer's CPU support list and BIOS requirements. If the required platform changes, include motherboard, memory and cooling costs; the CPU price alone is not the full upgrade cost.

Other processors readers weigh against these two.

Sources and data freshness

The retrieval date records when Find Me a CPU collected the source data. It is not a benchmark test date. Prices are USD estimates from the source, converted for other currencies, rather than live retailer offers. Release / first seen means the CPU first appeared on PassMark charts, not necessarily its launch date.

Benchmark scores do not predict frame rates in a particular game. Typical TDP is a specification, not measured electricity use. A matching socket does not confirm motherboard support; check the manufacturer's CPU support list and BIOS requirements.
