Intel has introduced two new processor series in the Xeon 6 family — the Xeon 6700 and Xeon 6500. These new processors are more energy efficient and fast in comparison to previous models.
The company shared more details about its latest Xeon 6 processors in a newsroom post. Along with the Xeon 6700 and 6500 series, Intel also introduced Xeon 6 for network and edge, a system-on-chip (SoC) designed for high performance and energy efficiency.
These processors are built for data centers and not for regular consumers. These new processors with Performance cores (P-cores) deliver 1.4 times better performance compared to the previous generation, as per the company. The processors can manage to handle a wide range of tasks, especially for businesses. These are also built to support AI and complex computing needs.

The Xeon 6700 and 6500 series processors perform up to 1.5 times better in AI tasks than AMD’s fifth-generation EPYC chips, even while using fewer cores, as per the company.
The new processors come with up to 86 cores and a power range of 150W to 300W. These processors support up to eight channels of DDR5 MRDIMM memory. They offer up to 88 PCIe 5.0 lanes (which increases to 136 lanes for single-socket setups) and include 64 lanes of CXL 2.0 connectivity.
The Intel Xeon 6 processor for network and edge has built-in accelerators to handle tasks such as virtual radio networks (vRAN), AI, media processing, and network security.
It is built to support the growing demand for powerful networks and edge computing in this AI era, as per the company. They also have the Intel Media Transcode Accelerator, a built-in feature that helps optimize power use for media processing.
