(PR) New Ultrafast Memory Boosts Intel Data Center Chips
While Intel's primary product focus is on the processors, or brains, that make computers work, system memory (that's DRAM) is a critical component for performance. This is especially true in servers, where the multiplication of processing cores has outpaced the rise in memory bandwidth (in other words, the memory bandwidth available per core has fallen). In heavy-duty computing jobs like weather modeling, computational fluid dynamics and certain types of AI, this mismatch could create a bottleneck—until now.
After several years of development with industry partners, Intel engineers have found a path to open that bottleneck, crafting a novel solution that has created the fastest system memory ever and is set to become a new open industry standard. The recently introduced Intel Xeon 6 data center processors are the first to benefit from this new memory, called MRDIMMs, for higher performance—in the most plug-and-play manner imaginable.
