New Intel Xeon 600 Processors for Workstation bring up to 86 cores, eight memory channels, and tons of I/O primed for heavy duty computing. Talking Tech sits down with Jonathan Patton from Intel Client Product Marketing, who explains how our latest workstation processor codenamed Granite Rapids is designed to meet the needs of professional workloads like AI development, data sciences, engineering, architecture, financial services, and media and entertainment. Learn about the lineup, where larger caches help workstation performance, and why mesh fabrics make sense for high core counts. We also cover overclocking, including how it’s used to tune workstation performance and what can be achieved in the hands of extreme overclockers.
