Gen to Gen CPU comparison

AI Performance Updates and  Higher Workload-optimized Performance

QCT Latest Generation Server Systems powered by 5th Gen Intel® Xeon® Scalable processors enable significant upgrades over the previous generation to increase performance utilizing PCIe Gen5, DDR5 Memory, Compute Express Link™, and Intel® Advanced Matrix Extensions (Intel® AMX).

With more compute and faster memory at the same power envelope as the previous generation, these CPUs are designed for better energy efficiency and optimized for the most demanding 5G, AI, HPC, database and analytics, edge, networking, and infrastructure and storage workloads.

At the same time, you get enhanced security features via Intel® Trusted Domain Extensions (Intel® TDX) and Intel® Software Guard Extensions (Intel® SGX) to protect your confidential computing and maximize your return on investment.
