Xeon e3 1200
Представлены процессоры Intel Xeon E3-1200 v6
Компания Intel представила семейство процессоров Intel Xeon E3-1200 v6, образованное восемью моделями на микроархитектуре Kaby Lake. Как и их предшественники, новые процессоры изготавливаются по 14-нанометровой технологии, имеют по четыре ядра и 8 МБ кэш-памяти третьего уровня. По словам Intel, они отличаются повышенной производительностью, улучшениями в части работы с памятью (поддерживается память до DDR4-2400) и защиты информации, а также новым графическим ядром Intel HD Graphics P630. Процессоры рассчитаны на использование совместно с чипсетами C232 и C236. Область применения Intel Xeon E3-1200 v6 — серверы и рабочие станции начального уровня.
Младшая модель Xeon E3-1220 v6 работает на частоте 3,0 ГГц, Xeon E3-1225 v6 — на частоте 3,3 ГГц, Xeon E3-1230 v6 — на частоте 3,5 ГГц. Модели Xeon E3-1240 v6 и Xeon E3-1245 v6 работают на частоте 3,7 ГГц, Xeon E3-1270 v6 и Xeon E3-1275 v6 — на частоте 3,8 ГГц. Наконец, модель Xeon E3-1280 v6 работает на частоте 3,9 ГГц. Модели, номера, которых заканчиваются на 5, оснащены графическим ядром. Их TDP — 73 Вт, TDP остальных моделей — 72 Вт.
Технологию повышения тактовой частоты Intel Turbo Boost Technology 2.0 поддерживают все процессоры Intel Xeon E3-1200 v6, а технологию многопоточного исполнения Intel HT Technology — все, кроме двух младших моделей. Исполнение процессоров — LGA1151.

Спецификации процессоров Intel Xeon E3-1200 v6
Ранее в этом месяце корпорация Intel успешно представила новое семейство процессоров для платформы LGA 1151 на базе архитектуры Kaby Lake. В сравнении со Skylake у новинок отличий крайне мало и почти все они заключаются в улучшенном блоке, отвечающем за кодирование и декодирование видео. Процессоры Kaby Lake точно так же используют 14-нм техпроцесс и полностью совместимы с существующим парком системных плат — требуется лишь соответствующее обновление BIOS. Но в дополнение к настольным версиям Kaby Lake Intel готовит и серию недорогих процессоров Xeon для однопроцессорных рабочих станций и серверов начального уровня. Такие станции могут использоваться и для работы с видеопотоками, так что новые возможности графики Intel HD P630 (Gen9.5, 24 исполнительных блока) придутся к месту.
Новинки будут поставляться на рынок под общим именем Xeon E3-1200 v6; их анонс и начало поставок ожидаются в текущем квартале. Точные характеристики новых Xeon неизвестны, вышеприведённая таблица базируется на данных, опубликованных на форумах Coolaler.com. Как и их настольные собратья, новые Xeon будут совместимы с существующими платформами, но, разумеется, лишь с теми, которые используют серверные чипсеты Intel — C232 и С236. В отличие от настольного сектора, где «двухсотая» серия чипсетов успешно вытесняет «сотую», Intel не планирует выпуск новых чипсетов для Xeon E3-1200 v6, но в этом нет особой необходимости: серия C23x успешно справляется со своими обязанностями во всех возможных сценариях применения процессоров Xeon E3-1200 v5/v6.
MSI C236M Workstation: уже готова к установке Xeon E3-1200 v6
Поддержка новых процессоров уже задекларирована некоторыми производителями системных плат, в частности, компанией MSI в описании платы C236M Workstation. В серии Xeon E3-1200 v6 по-прежнему будут представлены исключительно четырёхъядерные модели с объёмом кеша второго уровня 256 Кбайт на ядро; впрочем, появления шестиядерных, а тем более, восьмиядерных моделей в этой серии никто всерьёз и не ожидал. Но в сравнении с предыдущей версией компании-разработчику удалось немного снизить теплопакет с 80 до 72‒73 ватт. Не слишком много, но для процессоров, которым иногда приходится работать в весьма тяжёлых термальных условиях, не лишними будут даже эти 7‒8 ватт. Правда, есть сведения о других, более высоких показателях, в районе 74 ватт для процессоров без графического ядра и 78 ваттах для чипов, в которых оно активно.

Intel’s Xeon E3-1200-Series Family - Intel Xeon E3-1275 Review: Sandy Bridge Goes Professional
Eleven new processors populate the Xeon E3-1200 series. Five are server-specific, four are workstation-specific, and two are low-voltage models that won’t be sold at retail (they’re tray-only). Architecturally, all 11 chips are very similar. They center on the same Sandy Bridge design introduced on the desktop earlier this year.
That means they’re manufactured on a 32 nm process, employ up to four execution cores, and include as much as 8 MB of last-level cache. Hyper-Threading and Turbo Boost are enabled or disabled on a per-model basis, serving as differentiators. The same dual-channel memory controller is there, accommodating up to 32 GB of DDR3-1333. And there’s also an integrated PCI Express controller, plus the logic corresponding to Intel’s HD Graphics 3000 engine.
There are some notable differences between the desktop Core family and these new Xeons, though. To begin, the memory controller supports ECC-capable modules. That’s not even worth a footnote on a desktop platform, but it’s an important addition to servers and workstations tasked with money-making jobs. “Yeah, yeah, yeah,” you say. “I use desktop hardware at work all of the time and it’s just fine.” And so do I. But I also have more than a handful of painful memories when a story I was writing disappeared after a random blue-screen. Those are the situations ECC memory is intended to help prevent.
The Xeons also have more PCI Express connectivity. That’s right—here we all thought Sandy Bridge was limited to 16 lanes and three controllers. In fact, the Xeon implementation offers 20 lanes and four controllers. Sixteen makes sense on the desktop, where enthusiasts are most likely to monopolize them with a single GPU or split them with a pair of graphics cards. In the server space, however, you have 10 Gb Ethernet controllers, SAS cards, and Fibre Channel HBAs using x8 and x4 slots. An additional four lanes of PCIe come in useful.
Finally, there’s the issue of integrated graphics. Intel uses the same die across its Xeon E3 lineup. However, its retail server parts see that engine disabled entirely. One of its low-voltage offerings includes HD Graphics 2000. And the workstation SKUs come armed with HD Graphics P3000, which we’ll cover shortly.
| 3.5 GHz | 3.9 GHz | 8 MB | 4/8 | 1333 / 1066 | Yes | Yes | 95 |
| 3.4 GHz | 3.8 GHz | 8 MB | 4/8 | 1333 / 1066 | Yes | Yes | 95 |
| 3.4 GHz | 3.8 GHz | 8 MB | 4/8 | 1333 / 1066 | Yes | Yes | 80 |
| 2.4 GHz | 3.3 GHz | 8 MB | 4/8 | 1333 / 1066 | Yes | Yes | 45 |
| 3.3 GHz | 3.7 GHz | 8 MB | 4/8 | 1333 / 1066 | Yes | Yes | 95 |
| 3.3 GHz | 3.7 GHz | 8 MB | 4/8 | 1333 / 1066 | Yes | Yes | 80 |
| 3.2 GHz | 3.6 GHz | 8 MB | 4/8 | 1333 / 1066 | Yes | Yes | 95 |
| 3.2 GHz | 3.6 GHz | 8 MB | 4/8 | 1333 / 1066 | Yes | Yes | 80 |
| 3.1 GHz | 3.4 GHz | 6 MB | 4/4 | 1333 / 1066 | No | Yes | 95 |
| 3.1 GHz | 3.4 GHz | 8 MB | 4/4 | 1333 / 1066 | No | Yes | 80 |
| 2.2 GHz | 3.4 GHz | 3 MB | 2/4 | 1333 / 1066 | Yes | Yes | 20 |
As you can see, there’s more choice in the Xeon E3 family than Intel’s second-gen Core i7, i5, and i3 lineups combined. And aside from one low-voltage tray model, they all include at least four physical cores. They’re also predominantly armed with Hyper-Threading and equipped with a full 8 MB of L3.
All but one of the retail server-oriented models sports an 80 W TDP, indicative of the tighter constraints on 1U rack-mounted machines. The workstation-class processors employ the same 95 W rating as Intel’s desktop processors. And the low-voltage parts are available at 45 and 20 W TDPs.
Up and down the lineup you see some of the same capabilities already discussed on the desktop: Turbo Boost, Demand-Based Switching (similar to SpeedStep), and AES-NI support. FlexMigration is a cool capability that the Xeons uniquely get, though, that allows them to operate in a virtualized environment alongside other, older virtualized servers. Generally, the risk there would be migrating a VM from one system to another (based on a dissimilar architecture), without the same virtualization acceleration features. FlexMigration basically recognizes each generation of hardware in your infrastructure and uses the lowest common denominator, preventing a compatibility clash. Of course, it’s not ideal to disable new features, but when it’s the difference between throwing away usable servers to avoid crashes, well…
