Intel announces three new Xeon architectures launching within next 2 years built on 3nm and 1.8nm

[Grim5]

The first officially unveiled after lots of rumours is Sierra Forest: This Xeon architecture has up to 144 cores and is built on Intel's 3nm process node. Launches 2nd half of 2024. Intel says it's already fabricated and booted up a server with test Silicon of this architecture on 3nm.

But before that Intel will also be refreshing it's just launched Saphire Rapids CPUs later this year. This is called Granite Rapids and is available in in the 2nd half of 2023. These CPUs support DDR5-8800 RAM out of the box.

And then in 2025 Intel launches Clearwater Forest. Not confirmation on core counts; whether or not it's also 144 cores like Sierra Forest or if it's increased but Intel confirmed the process node - built on Intel 1.8nm

Just so you guys know, the E cores for Sierra Forest are not the same as those used on alder and Raptor lake desktop. They are brand new and are expected to have significant IPC improvements and may have other architecture changes - we just don't know at this point until Intel unveils it's new E cores next year

New Xeon here. https://www.intel.co.uk/content/www...essor-105m-cache-1-90-ghz/specifications.html

I recognise this.... Anvil Valkyrie.

I want this screenshot printed on my case....

That's not related to any of the 3 mentioned in the first post. That Xeon only supports 4800 ram but it will be refreshed with support for 8800

2025, too little too late by that time.

2023, Instinct MI 300.

AMD introduces Instinct MI300 exascale APU combining Zen 4 EPYC cores with CDNA 3 GPGPU cores and up to 128 GB HBM3 memory

The next gen Instinct MI300 chips will be AMD's first 3D stacked APU design integrating up to 24 Zen 4 EPYC cores combined with CDNA 3 GPGPU cores and on-die HBM3 memory for a total of more than 146 billion transistors.

AdoredTV talked about MI 300X which it that ^^^^^ cranked up to an insane level.

MI300 is a monster; the GPU alone on it pulls 750w under load
