Expected price is somewhere north of $5000, and will contain 3 blocks of 5 cores each with 37.5MB of cache total. Each of the 3 blocks have their own clock domains and is backwards compatible to existing Socket 2011 boards that can use Xeon processors.Information from the original source on the top end CPU is as follows:
- 4.31 billion transistors
- Will be in the Xeon E7 line-up, suited for 4P/8P systems (8 * 15 * 2 = 240 threads potential)
- 2.8 GHz Turbo Frequency (though the design will scale to 3.8 GHz)
- 150W TDP
- 40 PCIe lanes
