You Can't Get That From Here Edition
Top Story
- Full details of Intel's new range of workstation CPUs are out. (AnandTech)
Prices start at $359 for a 6 core part, with 4 memory channels supporting up to 2TB of RAM, and 64 lanes of PCIe 5.0. Except you can't buy that one, it's OEM-only.
Price for a 16 core model is $1389 with 4 channel RAM and 64 PCIe lanes, or $1589 with 8 channel RAM and 112 PCIe lanes. That's not a big difference but the motherboards for the latter version are likely to cost more as well.
It's likely to be slower than AMD's Ryzen 7950X - clock speeds are lower by about 1GHz - but if you need lots of RAM and/or PCIe slots it could be a viable option.
Benchmarks coming at the end of the month I think.
The chipset only comes with 2.5Gb Ethernet, which I think is a misfire. Workstation class systems like this should have 10GbE as standard.

And it does that a lot.
