Description
Maximum turbo frequency of 3.90 GHz
The maximum turbo frequency of 3.90 GHz refers to the highest clock speed that the Intel Xeon 6230 processor can reach when needed, under certain thermal and power conditions. Turbo frequency allows the processor to temporarily operate at a higher frequency than its base clock speed, in order to provide a performance boost for demanding workloads. When the processor is under a heavy load, it can turbo boost to the maximum frequency of 3.90 GHz, providing improved performance compared to its base clock speed of 2.10 GHz. The ability to turbo boost enables the 6230 to provide high performance when it is needed, while still maintaining energy efficiency.
14nm Process Technology
14nm process technology refers to the size of the transistors used in the manufacturing process of the Intel Xeon 6230 processor. The smaller the transistor size, the more transistors can be packed into a processor, resulting in improved performance and efficiency. The 14nm process technology used in the 6230 allows for high performance computing in a compact form factor, making it ideal for data center and cloud computing environments. The 14nm process technology also provides improved power efficiency, which can result in lower operating costs and increased reliability. Additionally, the smaller transistor size allows for higher clock speeds and improved performance compared to larger process technologies, making the 6230 a high-performance option for demanding workloads.
Processor Specifications
A processor, also known as a central processing unit (CPU), is the primary component in a computer that performs most of the processing tasks. Processor specifications include:
- Clock Speed: The speed at which a processor can execute instructions, measured in GHz (gigahertz).
- Cores: The number of physical cores in a processor, which determine the number of tasks it can perform simultaneously.
- Threads: The number of parallel threads a processor can run, which can be more than the number of cores.
- Cache: A small amount of fast memory built into the processor to speed up frequently used data.
- Instruction Set: The set of instructions the processor is designed to execute.
- TDP (Thermal Design Power): The maximum amount of power a processor is designed to consume, measured in watts.
- Socket: The type of socket or interface the processor uses to connect to the motherboard.
- Manufacturing Process: The size of the transistors in a processor, measured in nanometers (nm). Smaller transistors generally indicate better performance and power efficiency.
