Never Ending Story: Intel’s Sapphire Rapids (maybe) comes in the 12th Stepping – Planned shipping, a growing bug list and possible availability | Exclusive

Sapphire Rapids was originally supposed to compete against AMD’s Epyc Milan processors, but due to the delay, they now have to compete against AMD’s newer Genoa lineup.
Sapphire Rapids is limited to 60 cores, while Genoa even offers up to 96 cores. AMD’s server offerings also support faster memory, a larger number of PCIe Gen 5 lanes and much larger cache reserves. That’s going to hurt for sure.
Until now, Intel’s customers and partners assumed that the chips would be available in the second half of 2022, but internal information is now becoming a bit more concrete. Intel has now announced the “launch window” for Sapphire Rapids (SPR) for calendar week 6 to 9 (Feb. 6, 2023 to March 3, 2023)
Calendar week 42 for the smallest models (2S) and calendar week 45 for the larger models (4 and 8S) are being speculated.
Sapphire Rapids is more and more mutating into a penny ditch for Intel, while the still relatively young graphics card division should also be highly loss-making.
Nem sequer é em Janeiro e poderá ficar mais próximo do fim de Q1 2023. Outch.Intel is certainly not on the brink of financial collapse, but things are getting really tight. Emerald Rapids was actually planned for 2023 and could share a similar fate, because so far nothing is running as perfectly as it should and the NDA-sights don’t make friends feel comfortable.
https://www.nextplatform.com/2022/08/03/amd-finally-reaps-the-fortunes-it-has-sown/The best guesses across the Wall Street people that we talk to (who have access to Gartner, IDC, and Mercury Research server data) are that AMD has about north of a 25 percent share of server sales right now across all server sizes and types, which means Epyc has finally outdone Opteron.
Argonne National Laboratory has made its newest supercomputer, Polaris, available for scientific research. The system, which ranked 14th on the most recent Top500 list, is serving as a testbed for the exascale Aurora system slated for delivery in the coming months.
The HPE-built Polaris system (pictured in the header) consists of 560 nodes, each equipped with an AMD Epyc “Milan” CPU, quadruple Nvidia A100 GPUs (40GB variant) and 512GB of DDR4 memory. These nodes are networked with HPE Slingshot 10 (to be upgraded to Slingshot 11 in the fall) and are connected to Argonne’s dual 100PB Lustre filesystems, Grand and Eagle.
Teoricamente, o packaging da Intel é melhor que o da AMD. A Intel está a tentar criar processadores com múltiplos chips, sem as desvantagens de se ter multiplos chips no mesmo processador.AMD CCD supremancy
E a Intel fez alta gozação com os dies "colados com cuspe"...
A diferença entre um produto bom, ok ou mau pode ser apenas a altura em que é lançado.
