Server processors the Intel Broadwell-the EP has long been not only a flash in the list of supported products of different tools, but also in auction, as well as in various test comparisons. Fortunately, Intel presentation allowed to give a clear answer to the announcement timing of Broadwell-EP processors.
According to Intel Spanish division, Broadwell-EP processor is scheduled to debut on the last day of March - next Thursday. Processors Intel Xeon E5-2600 v4 is attributed to an increase by 20% the number of cores and a proportional increase in the cache volume . As is known, the model Broadwell-EP family core receive up to 22 inclusive, processors Broadwell-EX will be allowed to have up to 24 cores. Quad-channel memory will be able to work in DDR4-2400 mode. Add that
to be used in the desktop Broadwell-E processors will be presented in June this year, they will have between six to ten cores, and be able to work in the existing motherboards with socket LGA 2011-3 after a BIOS update.
Along the way, Intel representatives explain that seek to empower future processors speed of integrated memory - as is now happening with the graphic processor AMD Fiji using HBM type .
However, decided to start a family of accelerators computing generation Xeon Phi Knights Landing - related products will enter the market in the third quarter this year, they will be able to offer up to 72 cores and 16 GB of memory. However, working with six-channel DDR4 memory type, these accelerators will also support - total volume can reach 384 GB.
Integrated memory computation accelerators can be operated in three modes: as cache as RAM, and in a combined mode.
Accelerate Intel's server infrastructure is also planning through the use of technology Optane (3D Xpoint) - it will create a high-speed memory by DIMM, and SSDs.
If we talk about the first products to support Intel Omni-Path-speed interface, they should appear in the fourth quarter this year. Related Products :
