Comparison with similar processors in the Intel Xeon line
The SR0KX Intel Xeon 8 Core E5 2670 Processor is part of the Xeon E5-2600 family of processors, which are designed for use in two-socket servers, workstations, and high-end desktops. Here are some similar processors in the Intel Xeon line that can be compared with the SR0KX:
- Intel Xeon E5-2680 v2: This processor has similar core count and clock speed as the SR0KX, but it has a slightly higher maximum turbo frequency of 3.4GHz and a slightly larger L3 cache of 25MB. It also supports a higher QPI speed of 9.6 GT/s.
- Intel Xeon E5-2690 v2: This processor has the same core count and clock speed as the SR0KX, but it has a slightly larger L3 cache of 30MB. It also supports a higher QPI speed of 9.6 GT/s.
- Intel Xeon E5-2670 v3: This processor has the same core count as the SR0KX, but it has a slightly higher clock speed of 2.3GHz and a slightly larger L3 cache of 25MB. It also supports a higher QPI speed of 9.6 GT/s and built on a 22nm process technology.
All of these processors are designed for use in enterprise environments and provide similar performance characteristics, but the SR0KX is a bit older and less powerful than the other two processors.
It’s worth noting that depending on the use case, other factors such as memory and storage, power consumption, and cost would also need to be considered while selecting the processor.
