Intel uses a specific naming convention for its processors, which includes a processor number that can provide valuable information about each chip’s capabilities and intended use. Let’s break down the compon
Inspur G7 Servers for Intel Xeon Sapphire Rapids Launched We covered this some time ago, but Inspur has changed its naming convention. Previously models had the generation as the last digit, that continues with the G7. The big difference is that the old convention had “M” for Intel, “...
Intel continued its x86 naming convention with the 80286, 80386 and 80486 processors. In 1993, it changed its brand name to Pentium. In 1998, Intel expanded its focus from desktops to server processors with the introduction of its Xeon line. Before this, server processors were manufactured mainl...
For naming, Intel has the following scheme: I (such as D-2161I): Stands for Integrated Intel Ethernet T (such as D-2183T): Stands for high temperature support or extended reliability offerings N (such as D-2187NT): Stands for Intel Ethernet and Intel QuickAssist Technology Intel Xeon D...
Xeon processors are designed for servers and workstations, providing exceptional performance, reliability, and security. Pentium and Celeron processors target budget-conscious consumers and entry-level applications. Each of these processor families also has its own set of code names that reflect their ...
Finally, Intel's H-series Core i5 and i7 models get modest speed gains with Skylake. On the low end is a 2.3GHz Core i5 version, while Core i7 speeds come in at 2.6GHz, 2.7GHz and 2.9GHz. Other mainstream chipsets were announced, including Intel's first Xeo...
It has taken many years, but Supermicro finally has a STH offering. For those wondering, this is just a part of Supermicro’s naming convention that yielded this result. S is for single socket, and T is for this entry Xeon generation. Still, it is a bit fun to see and we clearly ne...
The latest generation of Intel Xeon microprocessors uses different naming convention. New processor numbers have "E3-", "E5-" or "E7-" prefix, a 4-digit number, and an optional suffix. The prefix signifies server market segment: E3-xxxx - microprocessors for workstations E5-xxxx - CPUs for...
Supermicro has an absolute ton of products out for the new Intel Xeon Scalable Processor Family launch. The new products are dubbed the “X11” generation and encompass single through quad socket platforms. Supermicro caters to a diverse set of IT infrastructure buyers so they have one of, if ...
