New Xeon processors E5-2600 v4 for data centers to debut later this month

The debut of the new generation of Intel Xeon processors, as indicated in Broadwell-EP code, will take place on March 31 according to a slide that Intel has appeared online at this time. After all, the debut of these new processors had already indicated on previous occasions as expected by the end of the first quarter of 2016.

With these CPUs, which will take the brand name Xeon E5-2600 v4, Intel will replace the Xeon E5-2600 v3 models based on Haswell architecture; It will be introduced for this reason the production technology to 14 nanometers even with these CPUs, allowing to increase both the overall number of integrated cores for each processor is the size of the last-level cache. At present the proposals Xeon E5-2600 v3 which come up to offer 14 core in the top range versions, in conjunction with 35 Mbytes of cache LL.

Among other innovations also we point out the support for DDR4-2400 memory, with an increase over the DDR4-2133 standard platforms combined with Xeon-based architecture firm Haswell prejudice the type quad channel memory controller. All this should make it possible to achieve tangible performance improvements, Intel indicates that in order to reach a + 18% as an average depending on the type of application used.
