Message: [QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 61955, member: 636"] Intel samples reveal the company's upcoming Granite Rapids-WS processors for workstations pack 86 cores and 172 threads. Engineering versions operate at 2.1 GHz speeds during early testing phases. The chips target high-end desktop and content creation markets against AMD's Threadripper 9000 series. OpenBenchmarking database entries show the processors running on W890 reference platforms with 512 GB DDR5 memory. Intel's flagship workstation chips will use the new LGA 4710 socket format. Current Xeon workstation owners must purchase complete system upgrades when transitioning to Granite Rapids-WS hardware, while AMD customers can swap Threadripper 7000 processors for newer 9000 models on existing motherboards.
