Today Intel announces a new family of Xeon processors with Xeon E models. These are proposals addressed to the growing segment of entry level workstations, based on single-socket architecture with 14-nanometer production technology.
Observing the technical specifications it is clear how these processors share the same Coffee Lake architecture of the Intel Core proposals for desktop systems: we also see it from the connection socket with the motherboard, which remains the LGA 1151. The following table shows the versions of processor announced today by Intel, with the corresponding technical specifications.
Processor | Clock | Turbo | Core | Threads | GPU | Cache | TDP | Price |
Xeon E-2186G | 3.8GHz | 4,7GHz | 66 | 12 | UHD630 | 12MB | 95W | $ 450 |
Xeon E-2176G | 3,7GHz | 4,7GHz | 6 | 12 | UHD630 | 12MB | 80W | $ 362 |
Xeon E-2174G | 3.8GHz | 4,7GHz | 4 | 8 | UHD630 | 8MB | 71W | $ 328 |
Xeon E-2146G | 3.5GHz | 4,5GHz | 6 | 12 | UHD630 | 12MB | 80W | $ 322 |
Xeon E-2144G | 3.6 GHz | 4,5GHz | 4 | 8 | UHD630 | 8MB | 71W | $ 272 |
Xeon E-2136 | 3,3GHz | 4,5GHz | 6 | 12 | – | 12MB | 80W | $ 284 |
Xeon E-2134 | 3.5GHz | 4,5GHz | 4 | 8 | – | 8MB | 71W | $ 250 |
Xeon E-2126G | 3,3GHz | 4,5GHz | 6 | 6 | UHD630 | 12MB | 80W | $ 255 |
Xeon E-2124G | 3,4GHz | 4,5GHz | 4 | 4 | UHD630 | 8MB | 71W | $ 213 |
Xeon E-2124 | 3,3GHz | 4,3GHz | 4 | 4 | – | 8MB | 71W | $ 193 |
We note how the processors are proposed in a 4 and 6 core version, some of which are based on HyperThreading technology that double the number of cores available. From the clock frequencies, we find many similarities with the versions of Intel Core i7, Core i5 and Core i3 available on the market.
We also note that most of these processors are equipped with an integrated GPU, based on Intel UHD630 architecture: this component is useful when you want to configure a workstation of compact size that does not require a dedicated video card.
