Intel Core Broadwell-E: debut in Q2, probably at Computex

The debut of the Intel Xeon processor E5-2600 v4, solutions for servers up to 2 sockets, is expected by the end of the month with the availability of new systems which should be almost immediate. These proposals are based on the architecture known by the codename of Broadwell-EP code, able to offer top of the range in variations up to 18 cores per socket.

During the second quarter of 2016 will be the time of the debut of Broadwell-E solutions, destined instead to the enthusiast end desktop systems currently based on Haswell-E processors. For these processors the debut period should coincide with the Computex Taipei, an event which will open officially on Tuesday 31st May.

A confirmation, although not official, comes from ASRock that updated the bios of various own motherboards based on chipset Intel X99 in conjunction with this note:

Support new CPUs coming Q2 2016

The reference is obviously to the Broadwell-E proposals, while the Computex is deducted as it is an essential event for all the motherboard manufacturers who are engaged in the development of solutions for Intel's enthusiast range.

The new CPUs Broadwell-E will introduce for the first time the production technology to 14 nanometers in this end products, allowing to have available a number of cores that start from 6 of the most economic proposals of this family until the core 10 of the top version of range. The Haswell-E proposals currently on the market are equipped with a variable number of cores 6 to 8 depending on the model.

The Silent Revolution of On-Device AI: Why the Cloud Is No Longer King

Introduction For years, artificial intelligence has meant one thing: the cloud. Whether you’re asking ChatGPT a question, editing a photo with AI tools, or getting recommendations on Netflix — those decisions happen on distant servers, not your device. But that’s changing. Thanks to major advances in silicon, model compression, and memory architecture, AI is quietly migrating from giant data centres to the palm of your hand. Your phone, your laptop, your smartwatch — all are becoming AI engines in their own right. It’s a shift that redefines not just how AI works, but who controls it, how private it is, and what it can do for you. This article explores the rise of on-device AI — how it works, why it matters, and why the cloud’s days as the centre of the AI universe might be numbered. What Is On-Device AI? On-device AI refers to machine learning models that run locally on your smartphone, tablet, laptop, or edge device — without needing constant access to the cloud. In practi...

Apple’s AI Push: Everything We Know About Apple Intelligence So Far

Apple’s WWDC 2025 confirmed what many suspected: Apple is finally making a serious leap into artificial intelligence. Dubbed “Apple Intelligence,” the suite of AI-powered tools, enhancements, and integrations marks the company’s biggest software evolution in a decade. But unlike competitors racing to plug AI into everything, Apple is taking a slower, more deliberate approach — one rooted in privacy, on-device processing, and ecosystem synergy. If you’re wondering what Apple Intelligence actually is, how it works, and what it means for your iPhone, iPad, or Mac, you’re in the right place. This article breaks it all down.   What Is Apple Intelligence? Let’s get the terminology clear first. Apple Intelligence isn’t a product — it’s a platform. It’s not just a chatbot. It’s a system-wide integration of generative AI, machine learning, and personal context awareness, embedded across Apple’s OS platforms. Think of it as a foundational AI layer stitched into iOS 18, iPadOS 18, and m...
