New skylake xeons spotted

Engineering Samples Spotted of Intel Skylake Xeon V5

This is a new chipset and an updated socket, The socket has been upgraded to feature 3647 pins that gives it the LGA 3647 name. The socket is surrounded by 12 DDR4 DIMM slots. This is due to support for next-generation hexa-channel memory and Intel’s Optane DIMMs for faster latency solutions. Overall, Purley will be expanding Intel’s server platform wit a range of new features.

The Xeon V5 processors that were listed down include 11 different parts,165W, 145W and 135W parts. The beefiest variant is the 28 core, 56 thread SKU that is clocked at 1.8 GHz and has a TDP rated at 165W. The surprising thing about Skylake Xeon V5 is that it features a different cache system than previous Xeon processors. Each core has 1.375 MB of dedicated L3 cache. On Broadwell Xeon V4, each core featured 2.5 MB of dedicated L3 cache.

This seems to compete against the new Zen CPUs from AMD,this new CPUs are pretty powerful and made for Deep Learning AI and servers,release might be soon,Leave your comments down below
