Detailed information

Intel® Xeon® Bronze

Intel® Xeon® Bronze processors bring all the benefits of the new Intel platform to your business networks and data storage. These include, above all, reliability, availability, functionality and, compared to the previous generation, higher efficiency. The Bronze series is designed to meet the needs of the entry-level segment of powerful server processors.

Cores

The joint activity of processor cores is called multitasking. For multi-core processors, a good interplay of cores is important, as it allows the entire system to be used to the maximum extent possible. In general, multi-core processors are often used for virtualization or calculations, in contrast, processors with fewer cores and the highest clock speed are often used for applications requiring single-threaded performance.

Number of cores 6

Threads

Processor threads are used thanks to Hyperthreading and Multithreading technologies, which create two virtual cores from one physical core by activating two control units in it, which guarantees higher performance. For most modern server processors, the ratio is 1:2, i.e. 8 cores, 16 threads.

Number of threads 6

Frequency

The frequency or clock rate of the processor indicates how quickly the processor can process instructions, sort ones and zeros. As the frequency of the processor increases, performance usually increases, but this is not a rule, multi-core processors tend to have a lower clock rate, but are still more efficient in optimized programs. It is therefore only one aspect of choosing the right processor for the application being used.

Cache

The cache exists in three layers, L1, L2 and L3 cache, and is a hardware cache used by the processor to store data, which will make the next access to the book faster. Processors with a higher number of cores often have larger caches. AMD EPYC processors excel in this area, offering up to 256 MB of L3 cache.

L3 cache memory 8.25 MB

Memory compatibility

When choosing a processor, it is also a good idea to pay attention to the maximum memory capacity that the processor can handle, this parameter cannot be expanded in the future, except by exchanging it for a more powerful processor. Next, the maximum operating memory frequency with which the processor can work — if the operating memory frequency is higher than this value, the processor automatically underclocks its memory modules to its maximum supported frequency.

TDP     

This value represents the highest possible heat output that the server cooling must be able to dissipate. For processors, the heat loss is practically equal to the energy consumed.

TDP 85 W
