Intel and AMD have launched a 'nuclear battle' in the past two years. Among them, Intel is far ahead in the field of desktop fever and server data centers. At the Taipei Computer Show, it also announced a new generation of 28 cores!
The current flagship of the Intel Xeon Scalable Xeon Extensible Family is 28 cores and 56 threads, including Gold 8180, 8176, 8176M, and 8176F, all of which belong to the Skylake-EP family. Later this year, Intel will release a new generation of Cascade. Lake, the new 28-core announced today is one of them.
Gregory Bryant, Intel Senior Vice President and General Manager of the Client Computing Division, demonstrated the 28-core, 56-thread 'monster'. The performance of the CineBench R15 multi-threaded test was up to 7334, compared to the enthusiast-grade 18-core 36 thread. The Core i9-7980XE is only about 3500 points. With a core of more than 55%, the performance is suddenly higher by 110%!
According to the live demonstration, It actually went to full-core 5GHz acceleration , It's a bit scary to know that the current Xeon 8100 series 28 core highest Turbo Boost speed is 3.8GHz.
Of course, the specific specifications of the new generation of products have not yet been announced. We will not meet with us until the fourth quarter of this year.
Cascade Lake continues to be manufactured on 14nm process. The hardware architecture has been redesigned, the underlying immunity is Meltdown, Spectre's ghost security holes.
