Without it being officially announced, we have the first ones information for its top processor server Intel with 18 cores!
In February of 2015 at the IEEE international Solid State Circuits Conference (ISSCC), the processor Intel Xeon E7 v3 "Haswell-EX", manufactured with the Tri-Gate technology at 22nm.
Also, the Xeon E7 v3 "Haswell-EX" will consist of 5,56 billion transistors, a record number that promises top performance.
However, it is not the number of transistors, but the number of cores stealing the show, as the Xeon E7 v3 “Haswell-EX” will have 18 cores and through her technology Hyper Threading will be able to manage 36 threads.
Finally, Haswell-EX has 45MB Last level cache (LLC), while it is not missing DDR4 controller, PCIe Gen3 and collaboration with motherboards with to 8 socket.
