Intel Chip Chat

Jennifer Huffstetler, VP and GM for Data Center Product Management at Intel, joins Chip Chat for a deep dive into the capabilities of a new class of processors: future Intel® Xeon® Scalable processors codenamed Cascade Lake advanced performance. Architected to deliver performance leadership across the widest range of demanding workloads[1], future Intel Xeon Scalable processors codenamed Cascade Lake advanced performance deliver unprecedented memory bandwidth[2] with more memory channels than any other CPU. These processors are expected to offer superior performance (results estimated based on pre-production hardware) in comparison to AMD EPYC on many demanding applications including: • Physics -- MILC up to 1.5X [quantum chromodynamics] [3] • Weather – WRF up to 1.6X [weather research and forecasting model] [4] • Manufacturing – OpenFOAM up to 1.6X [open source CFD] [5] • Life/material sciences – NAMD (APOA1) up to 2.1X [Nanoscale Molecular Dynamics] [6] • Energy – YASK (ISO3DFD) up to 3.1X [stencil benchm
