Products brief & Comparison Guide

Pervasive, Breakthrough Performance
From its new Intel® Mesh Architecture and widely expanded resources to its hardware-accelerating technologies like Intel®
AVX-512, Intel® Xeon® Scalable and Intel® Xeon® W processor-based workstation platforms enable a new level of breakthrough
performance
. Whether your application scales based on processor frequency or on the number of cores and threads, Intel Xeon
processors provide a flexible range of options with processors up to 4.5 GHz or up to 28 cores.
Intel® Turbo Boost Technology 2.0: Dynamically increases
the processor’s frequency, as needed, by taking advantage
of thermal and power headroom when operating below
specified limits.
Intel® Hyper-Threading Technology: Delivers two
processing threads per physical core. Highly threaded
applications can get more work done in parallel, completing
tasks sooner.
Intel® Speed Shift Technology: Delivers dramatically
quicker responsiveness
with single-threaded, transient
workloads by allowing the processor to more quickly select
its best operating frequency and voltage for performance
and power efficiency.
Intel® vPro™ Technology: Intel® vPro™ Technology delivers
hardware-enhanced security features, identity protection
features, and remote manageability features to ease
workstation deployment for IT managers.
Integrated Intel® Ethernet: Intel 1 Gigabit Ethernet
provides high-bandwidth access to simulation, rendering,
or analytics servers.

In the Intel® Xeon® Scalable processor platform Intel® Mesh Architecture
with up to 28 cores (per processor), the Last Level Cache (LLC), six
memory channels, and 48 PCIe* channels are shared among all the
cores, giving access to large resources across the entire die and creating
dynamic scalability without sacricing performance.
Foundational Enhancements
Higher Per-Core Performance or Higher Frequency
Perfo
rmance: Up to 28 cores and 56 threads, per
processor, for Intel Xeon Scalable processors and up
to 18 cores and 36 threads for Intel Xeon W processors
delivering high performance and scalability for compute-
intensive workstation workloads. For frequency-bound
workstation applications, Intel Xeon W processors provide
up to 4.5 GHz of frequency to drive increased performance.

Expanded I/O: 48 lanes of PCIe* 3.0 bandwidth and
throughput for demanding I/O-intensive workloads.
Intel® Advanced Vector Extensions 512 (Intel® AVX-512):
With double the flops per clock cycle compared to previous
generation Intel® AVX2,

for the most demanding
computational tasks in applications, such as modeling and
simulation, data analytics and machine learning,
visualization, and digital content creation.
Essential Workstation Features
Error correcting code (ECC): Error correcting code, or
ECC memory, automatically detects and repairs single-bit
errors on-the-y to keep workstation applications running
reliably and free of data corruption.
