Intel plans to launch powerful new server chips called Diamond Rapids. The company builds these processors using their cutting-edge 18A technology on the Oak Stream platform. Each chip contains the same fast Panther Cove cores that will appear in regular computer processors. The top model features 192 super-fast cores spread across four separate sections. Each section holds 48 cores that work together to handle massive computing tasks.

The new processors connect to special input-output modules that manage data flow. Companies can choose different versions depending on their needs. The basic version uses one module with eight memory channels instead of the full sixteen channels. Diamond Rapids supports incredibly fast memory modules that run at speeds up to 12800 MT/s. This gives servers the quick memory access they need for heavy workloads.

Server makers can install one, two, or four of these processors in a single machine. Four processors working together can deliver 768 cores of computing power in one rack. The chips use a brand new LGA 9324 socket design and support the latest PCIe 6.0 connections. However, all this performance comes with a price since fully loaded systems consume around 2000 watts of electricity. Companies will need serious cooling systems to keep these hot chips running smoothly.
