Montage Technology releases server processors under the C6P designation that represent rebranded Intel Granite Rapids Xeon chips. The Chinese company targets domestic server markets with these processors that feature up to 86 cores and 172 threads. This practice continues Montage Technology's established pattern of relabeling Intel server processors for local distribution. The processors carry 336 MB of L3 cache and utilize Intel's Redwood Cove P-Core architecture. Montage Technology selected the Xeon 6700P series rather than the higher-end 6900P variants for this rebadging effort.
The C6P processors support both single and dual-socket configurations with four UPI interconnects operating at 24 GT/s bandwidth. Eight-channel DDR5 memory operates at speeds reaching 6400 MT/s for RDIMMs and 8000 MT/s for MRDIMMs. The processors provide 88 PCIe 5.0 lanes with CXL 2.0 support for enhanced connectivity. Socket compatibility allows seamless upgrades from previous Sierra Forest or earlier Montage processors. The collaboration suggests Intel maintains market presence through localized partnerships despite direct sales restrictions.
