Description
14 Core Processor for High Performance Computing
The CM8066002031201 Intel Xeon E5-2660 14 Core processor is designed for high performance computing (HPC) applications that require a high level of parallel processing power.
This processor features 14 cores and 25MB of L3 Smart Cache, which allows it to handle multiple tasks simultaneously and improve overall performance. The processor also supports Intel Hyper-Threading Technology (HTT), which allows each core to handle two threads simultaneously. This results in a total of 28 threads, providing even more parallel processing power.
The processor also features a high-speed Intel Quick Path Interconnect (QPI) that allows fast communication between the processor and other components in the system, such as memory and I/O devices. This results in improved system performance and increased bandwidth.
Additionally, the processor supports Intel Turbo Boost Technology (TBT), which allows the processor to automatically increase its clock speed when there is extra power available. This results in improved performance for demanding applications.
Smart Cache for Improved Data Access
The Intel Xeon E5-2660 processor features Smart Cache, which is a technology that improves data access and performance by dynamically allocating cache memory to the cores that need it most.
Cache memory is a high-speed memory located on the processor that stores frequently accessed data for quick access. Smart Cache allows the processor to dynamically allocate cache memory to the cores that need it most, based on the workload and usage patterns. This results in improved performance, as cores that need more data can access it faster.
Smart Cache also improves data access by allowing each core to have its own dedicated cache memory, reducing contention and increasing the amount of cache memory available per core.
In addition, the E5-2660 processor has 25MB of L3 Smart Cache which is a high-speed memory that is shared among all cores, storing the most frequently accessed data. This results in faster data access, as the processor can access the data it needs without having to go to the main memory.
