Intel-Bereitschaften “Saphir Stromschnellen” Basierend auf Xeon W HEDT/Wosktation-Prozessoren für Q1-2023

Intel plant einen Januar 2023 Marktdebüt seines Xeon Scalable der 4. Generation “Saphir Stromschnellen” Server-Prozessoren, which will be followed rather quickly by the launch of Xeon W-3400 and W-2400 processors targeting a segment of the market that spans HEDTs and workstations. According to information scored by leaf_hobby, a reliable source with Intel roadmap leaks; the company is planning a February 2023 announcement of these processors, followed by availability of the W-2400 in March, and W-3400 in April.

Intel could extensively market the various hardware-accelerators on the “Saphir Stromschnellen” MCM to the workstation crowd, where they might help users overcome the rather low CPU core-count of these processors compared their upcoming AMD Threadripper 7000 Serie Kollegen. “Saphir Stromschnellen” tops out at 60-core/120-thread per socket, whereas the SP5-based Threadripper 7000 is expected to offer 96-core/192-thread. Both platforms offer the latest I/O, including PCIe Gen 5, CXL, and ECC DDR5 memory.
