The processors are built using Intel’s industry-leading and energy-efficient 22nm, 3-D Tri-Gate technology, cutting power consumption while boosting performance of transistors. The new “per-core” power states dynamically regulate and adjust power in each processor core for more power-efficient workload processing.
Combining both record performance and advanced efficiency features, the Intel Xeon processor E5-2600 v3 product family sets a new world record for server energy efficiency9 based on performance per watt.
Creating Open, Flexible Networks with Intel Xeon E5-2600 v3 Processors
Intel Xeon E5-2600 v3 processors can be paired with the Intel® Communications Chipset 89xx series featuring Intel® Quick Assist Technology to enable faster encryption and compression performance10 to improve security in a wide range of workloads. Service providers and networking equipment providers can use the platform to consolidate multiple communications workloads onto a single, standardized and flexible architecture to speed up services deployment, reduce costs, and create a more consistent and secure user experience.
In addition, the new Intel® Ethernet Controller XL710 family helps address the increasing demands on networks with capabilities to enable better performance for virtualized servers and networks. The flexible 10/40 gigabit Ethernet controller provides twice the bandwidth while consuming half the power compared with the previous generation11.
Extensive industry support
Starting today, system manufacturers from around the world are expected to announce hundreds of Intel® Xeon® processor E5 v3 family-based platforms. These manufacturers across servers, storage and networking include Bull*, Cray*, Cisco*, Dell*, Fujitsu*, Hitachi*, HP*, Huawei*, IBM*, Inspur*, Lenovo*, NEC*, Oracle*, Quanta*, Radisys*, SGI*, Sugon* and Supermicro*, among many others.
Pricing details
The Intel Xeon processor E5-2600 v3 product family will be offered with 26 different parts that range in price from $213 to $2,702 in quantities of 1,000. Intel Xeon processor E5-1600 workstations will be offered with six different parts in prices ranging from $295 to $1,723. Complete pricing details can be found in the Intel Newsroom.

higher throughput to certain processor operations. Due to varying
processor power characteristics, utilizing AVX instructions may cause a)
some parts to operate at less than the rated frequency and b) some parts
with Intel® Turbo Boost Technology 2.0 to not achieve any or maximum
