Intel Unveils Game-Changing AI Chips to Rival Nvidia and AMD

Intel's new Xeon 6700E series, particularly the Sierra Forest model, marks a significant shift in their Xeon lineup with 144 efficient cores, DDR5 support, and PCIe Gen5 in a 250W TDP. These E-cores, lacking Hyper-Threading, are designed to transition legacy workloads efficiently without changing architectures. The launch signifies a move towards higher density and power efficiency, setting the stage for future advancements like the anticipated Clearwater Forest.

Intel Unveils Powerful and Efficient Xeons for 2023

Intel has provided more technical details about its upcoming Xeon processors, Granite Rapids and Sierra Forest, at the Hot Chips conference. These processors, set to launch in 2024, will introduce area-efficient E-cores to Intel's server platform. The 6th generation Xeon Scalable platform will feature a shared platform for both processors, including the same socket, memory, and chiplet-based design. Sierra Forest will be Intel's first E-core Xeon Scalable chip for data centers, while Granite Rapids will follow shortly after. The platform will support up to 12 memory channels and offer self-booting capabilities. The processors will have different core counts and performance capabilities, but Intel aims to make them interchangeable.
