A 230-watt Intel processor can be made

The Power Stamp Alliance (PSA) posted some info about the chip giant’s next miracle, the CPU family running under the codename Ice Lake. Exactly the news is about the Intel Xeon series, which of course embodies server processors. According to the named portal, the processors are seated in a gigantic LGA 4189 socket, which may be slightly larger than the currently used LGA 3647 (Kaby Lake and the incoming Cascade Lake use this). Despite the 10nm manufacturing technology, consumption promises to be very serious, Intel is likely to further increase the number of processors, while energy demand may also be increased by innovations such as e.g. the Omni-Path interface.

tpu intel xeon 230wCompatibility can be achieved with an adapter.

Digging even deeper into the PSA documentation, we can also see that processors can get an 8-channel (!) Memory controller, which can obviously result in ample bandwidth and capacity.
