Overview of the 870976-B21 HPE
The 870976-B21 HPE Intel Xeon 26 Core Platinum 8164 Processor is a powerful CPU designed for high-performance computing and demanding workloads. This processor is part of the Intel Xeon Platinum family, which is known for its exceptional performance and reliability. In this article, we will explore the features and specifications of this processor in detail.
Processor Architecture
The 870976-B21 HPE Intel Xeon 26 Core Platinum 8164 Processor is built on a 14nm manufacturing process and has 26 cores. The processor has a base clock speed of 2.0GHz and a maximum turbo frequency of 3.7GHz. This processor has a cache size of 35.75MB and supports up to 768GB of DDR4 memory. It also has support for up to 3.6TB of Intel Optane DC persistent memory.
Socket and Thermal Design Power
The 870976-B21 HPE Intel Xeon 26 Core Platinum 8164 Processor is designed to fit into the FCLGA3647 socket. This socket is specifically designed for high-performance computing and server systems. The processor has a thermal design power (TDP) of 150W, which means it requires a robust cooling solution to maintain optimal performance.
UPI Speed and Hyper-Threading Technology
The 870976-B21 HPE Intel Xeon 26 Core Platinum 8164 Processor has a UPI (Ultra Path Interconnect) speed of 10.4GT/s. UPI is a high-speed interconnect that provides a point-to-point connection between CPUs and other system components. This allows for faster communication between components, which can lead to improved performance in multi-CPU systems.
Hyper-Threading Technology is also supported by the 870976-B21 HPE Intel Xeon 26 Core Platinum 8164 Processor. This technology allows each physical core to be split into two virtual cores, allowing the CPU to handle more threads simultaneously. This can lead to improved performance in applications that can take advantage of multiple threads.
Advanced Vector Extensions and Instruction Set Extensions
The 870976-B21 HPE Intel Xeon 26 Core Platinum 8164 Processor supports Advanced Vector Extensions (AVX) and Instruction Set Extensions (ISA). AVX is an extension of the x86 instruction set that allows for the processing of large amounts of data in parallel. This can lead to significant performance improvements in scientific and engineering applications.
ISA, on the other hand, are additional instructions that can improve the performance of specific tasks. The 870976-B21 HPE Intel Xeon 26 Core Platinum 8164 Processor supports a range of ISA, including SSE4.2, AVX-512, and Intel TXT.
Overall, the 870976-B21 HPE Intel Xeon 26 Core Platinum 8164 Processor is a powerful CPU that is designed for high-performance computing and demanding workloads. Its 26 cores, high clock speed, and large cache size make it an ideal choice for applications that require significant processing power. Its support for UPI, Hyper-Threading Technology, AVX, and ISA make it a versatile processor that can handle a wide range of tasks. However, its 150W TDP means it requires a robust cooling solution to maintain optimal performance. If you're looking for a powerful CPU for your high-performance computing needs, the 870976-B21 HPE Intel Xeon 26 Core Platinum 8164 Processor is definitely worth considering.

About New Bulk Pack Products
With the many different server processors on the market today, it is not easy to shop for the most appropriate one for your applications. We have seen a series of releases of new processor models in the past decade, and Intel Xeon 26 core is one of them. This CPU mainly targets the server and workstations because of the high demand for performance. You can consider it for a wide range of applications in small enterprises and big data centers.
The Best among The Scalable Family of Processors
The scalable family of processors is categorized into platinum, gold, silver, and bronze. At the top of the ladder, we have the Intel Xeon 26 core platinum processors. Why are they occupying the top slot? These CPUs feature up to 8 different socket configurations and support DDR4-2666 MHz memory. There are two FMA independent units for every chore and can be overclocked through the Intel Turbo Boost Technology. Other models also have distinguishing features that enhance their reliability and performance.
Designed for All Workload Types
There are only two types of workloads that a program can throw to a processor: single-thread and multithread loads. The former uses only a single core of the CPU, while the former uses more than one, depending on the number of threads initiated. When handling a single-threaded task, the other CPU chores are deactivated or turned to the sleeping mode to save on power usage. Multithreaded applications are handled differently. Different threads are spread across the CPU cores for better performance and to have the job done faster. Fortunately, Intel Xeon 26 core is not core-limited.
Large Memory and Better Thermal Optimization
Apart from the clock speed, the capacity and type of cache memory are key parameters that you need to consider when shopping for server CPUs. Most of the Intel Xeon processors have relatively high cache memory, and the 26 core is not optional. As a result of a high capacity level 3 cache memory of up to 35.75MB, these processors have a high performance demanded by most multithreaded applications.
You can expect such a multicore processor to generate a lot of heat, but that might not be the case with the Intel Xeon 26 core processor. The CPU is optimized to reduce internal heating by regulating the power going to each processor core.
