How do the benchmark scores compare?
Intel Xeon W-1290P @ 3.70GHz has a PassMark single-core score of 3,166, compared with 3,399 for Intel Xeon W-1390 @ 2.80GHz. Intel Xeon W-1390 @ 2.80GHz has the higher score in this benchmark.
Intel Xeon W-1290P @ 3.70GHz has a PassMark multicore score of 22,363, compared with 23,427 for Intel Xeon W-1390 @ 2.80GHz. Intel Xeon W-1390 @ 2.80GHz 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 Xeon W-1290P @ 3.70GHz lists FCLGA1200; Intel Xeon W-1390 @ 2.80GHz lists FCLGA1200. 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.

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.
