Top ten Xeon E5 server manufacturers

March 7, Intel released a full new generation of Xeon E5 processor products in Beijing. The processor uses the Sandy Bridge architecture design, 32nm process technology. With more cores (eight cores), more cache (up to 20MB), more memory channels (single core 4 memory channels), the latest pci-e3.0 standard, second Dai acceleration technology, and AVX advanced vector extension instruction set, compared with the previous generation Xeon 5600 series.

The Xeon E5 uses an annular bus to connect each CPU core and the LLC cache (L3 cache), using two maximum speed 8.0gt/s QPi interconnection between the two processors. The memory channel is four channels, the highest frequency ddr3-1600, the maximum memory capacity up to 768GB. In performance, compared to the previous generation of products increased by more than 80%. The latest pci-e3.0 support also makes I/O data throughput 3 times times higher than ever, enabling faster delivery of information to meet data application load requirements.

The E5 series supports critical cloud requirements that make data centers more flexible and responsive to changing business needs. It continues to be an industry leader in energy efficiency, while maintaining its own powerful performance advantages that provide higher performance for single-threaded or multi-threaded applications when needed, including improved floating-point performance for high-performance computing workloads.

In addition, the advanced vector extended instruction set (AVX) supported by the Intel Xeon E5-2600 helps to increase the computational-intensive application of financial analysis, media content production, and high-performance computing by up to twice times.

Xeon E5 processor family: Omnipotent

In addition to performance, its performance power consumption performance is excellent. As much as 50% of the energy efficiency of the Xeon E5 can provide more performance with the same power consumption, it can also bring significant cost reduction to the actual application.

50% Energy Efficiency boost
