14 DAY TRIAL // After yesterday we brought you the first details about two 10-core CPUs that will be part of Intel's upcoming Xeon E7 processor line, it’s now time to meet the rest of the family as leaks suggest that this series will contain no less than 13 processor models, ranging from six to ten cores.
All of them will be based on the 32nm Westmere architecture and their operating frequencies range from 1.73GHz up to 2.4GHz.
To simplify its name scheme, the Xeon E7 line will be split into two variations, the E7-2800 series for 2P servers, and E7-4800 series for 4P servers.
In addition, the CPUs will feature as much as 30MB of L3 cache memory and their TDP is rated between 95W and 130W.
Starting with the six-core chips, two versions are available, the Xeon E7-2803 and the Xeon E7-4807, the first one being clocked at 1.73GHz and carrying a 105W TDP while the latter operates at 1.86GHz and has a TDP of 95W.
Both, however, pack 18MB of L3 cache and a 4.8GT/s Quick Path Interconnect (QPI) link.
Moving on, we find four eight-core CPUs, two E7-2800 and two E7-4800 SKUs, the E7-2820 and E7-4820 working at 2GHz and supporting 18MB of L3 cache while the E7-2830 and E7-4830 come with 24MB of L3 cache and operate at 2.13GHz.
Finally, six 10-core CPUs are to be launched, their clock rates varying between 2GHz and 2.4GHz, while the L3 cache memory is rated at 24MB or 30MB, depending on the model.
All of hem feature a 130W TDP and 6.4 GT/s QPI link.
In addition, Intel will also release a low-power version of their ten-core CPU, dubbed the Xeon E7-8867L, that uses a slightly lower 105W TDP.
Just like some of its older siblings, the CPU will use a full 30MB of L3 cache, has a 2.13GHz core frequency and a 6.4GT/s QPI link. (via CPU-World).
