Leaving in the next quarter processors Xeon E5-2600 v4 generation Broadwell-EP will be able to work in the existing motherboards after updating the BIOS. We add that we are talking about server processors.
Platform Intel Purley, which will debut in the first half of 2017, will work not only with the processor lodges Skylake-EP / EX, but also 10-nm processors Cannonlake-EP / EX. Between them is not much difference, so use the same motherboard is not a problem - the appropriate connector carries the Socket P. For platform Purley will support six-channel type memory DDR4 RDIMM and NVDIMM - up to 12 modules on a single processor. In the case of EP-Skylake it will DDR4-2667 memory type, in the case of EP-Cannonlake - DDR4-2933. Furthermore, the CPU Skylake receive one port Omni Path, and the processors Cannonlake - has two. TDP value of both generations of processors will not exceed 145-160 watts.
CPU will support 48 lines PCI Express 3.0, four more will be allocated under the DMI to communicate with core logic Lewisburg. In turn, it will provide support 20 lines PCI Express 3.0 and up to 14 ports SATA-600.
Working with data storage in future server systems will be carried out through the interface OCuLink, corresponding to PCI Express 4.0 specification and using the type of connector SFF-8639. Skylake processors server class will be released in the first half of 2017, they will receive up to 28 physical cores. Related Products :
