Intel has introduced a ore powerfull family of Xeon processors with up 10 cores, giving Windows and linux computer makers the muscle needed to continue luring costomers away from manufacturers of Unix servers running RISC prosesors.
The Xeon E7 family, consisting of the 8800, 4800, and 2800 series, forms the top end of the brand, with the E5 and rhe E3 families Westmere EX architecture, which is the generational successor of Nehalem EX.
Intel introduced a total of 18 processors with up to 10 core for two, four, and eight socket servers. The chipd provide up to 40% higher system-level performance than the Nehelam EX acthitecture, which has ad many as eight cores. The E7 processors boost by 25% the performance of applications running on virtual machines.
Intel is providing 10 different 10 core versions of the E7, including the 8870, 5870, and 2870, all of which reach 2.4Ghz with a thermal design point of 130 watts. The company is also providing a low voltage 10 core chip. The 8867L reaches 2.13 Ghz with a TDP of 150 watts.
Intel says system makers are ecpected to announce more than 35 products based on the E7. The manufacturers include Bull, Cisco, Cray, Drawning, Dell Fujitsu, Hitachi, Hewlett-Packard, Huawei, IBM, Inspur, Lenovo, NEC, Oracle, PowerLeader, Quanta, SGI, Supermicro, and Unisys.
The Xeon E7 Processord range in price from $774 to $4,616 in quantities of 1000. The Xeon processor E3 1200 entry levwl family, also unveiled Tuesday, ranges in price from $189 to $612 in quantities of 1000.
