16-core Intel Xeon W workstation CPU for CAD, media production, and engineering desktops. It brings workstation platform features at a more approachable price than Xeon W9 models.

With 16 cores and 32 threads, the Xeon w5-2465X is designed for workstation desktops used in CAD, media production, and engineering.
Support for DDR5-4800 memory and PCIe 5.0 helps pair the processor with modern workstation components.
A 3.1 GHz base clock and up to 4.7 GHz max boost clock provide strong frequency specifications for demanding desktop workstation workloads.
The Intel Xeon w5-2465X is a 16-core, 32-thread workstation processor for CAD, media production, and engineering desktops, built on the Sapphire Rapids architecture with an LGA 4677 socket, DDR5-4800 memory support, and PCIe 5.0 connectivity.
The review describes the processor as a powerful, hexadeca-core solution that significantly improves multitasking efficiency for professionals such as software developers, video editors, and data scientists. It is recommended for its reliability and power in demanding computing environments.
The review highlights that the Xeon W-2400 series represents a major performance jump and reduced power consumption compared to the previous generation, with the w5-2465X showing a 15% improvement over the Threadripper PRO 5955WX in heavy projects. Overall, it notes the processor series makes Intel a competitive option again, though it observes that they still have work to do to consistently outperform AMD's Threadripper PRO offerings.
