The platform Purley includes server processors Skylake-EP and Skylake-EX, as well as the chipset Lewisburg. The announcement should take place in the year 2017 or later periods.
First of all, it should be noted that the platform is designed to scale from Purley systems with two processor sockets to making a number of connectors, up to eight units.
Going back to the server version Skylake, you need to explain that one processor of this generation may have up to 14 physical cores with support for Hyper-Threading, and the memory type will be six-channel DDR4. They will be supported by the type of modules RDIMM and LRDIMM at speeds up to DDR4-2666, but by the processors need Socket P. The TDP value of Skylake processors server class will be determined by a range of 45 to 165 watts. The processors will use the new system interface instead of the former UPI QPI, and the number of supported PCI Express lanes will increase to 48 units, with their share will be combinations of x4, x8, x16. Another 20 lines PCI Express 3.0 provides chipset Lewisburg.
Supports of instruction set AVX-512 by Skylake processors, allows to double the production rate in terms of core in floating-point calculations. Capacity and memory bandwidth will also be significantly increased. Related Products :
