2 ghz base clock ? thats like Romes 64 core server. As all suspected, clocks are lower. The question is, what will it do in production vs a comparable AMD part ? 54% IPC improvement ? when I see production benchmarks against its competitor, I will believe it. Until then 2 ghz is like AMD is doing with their 64 core for base. I mean for their ES chips its base. I have a 64 core Rome ES, and its 2 ghz base.
Oh, and this is 14 core ? Rome 12 core is 2.9 ghz base, and Rome 16 core is 2.8 base. 2 ghz is so low that even if its reported 54% is true, how do they compare to Rome ? And what about 16,32,48, 64 core ? Do they have anything to compete with Rome ?
