About the Intel Core 2 Extreme QX9300 CPU
The Intel Core 2 Extreme QX9300 is an end-of-life 4-core (4-thread) processor built for the mobile CPU market. It launched in Q3 2008. It is part of Intel's Core 2 Extreme lineup, which is based on the Penryn QC XE microarchitecture. The Extreme QX9300 is compatible with Intel Socket P motherboards and is fabricated on Intel's 45 nm manufacturing process.
Memory and Cache
In terms of cache, the Core 2 Extreme QX9300 has multiple levels of cache. Its L1 cache, which is the smallest and fastest, is 64 KB in size, providing rapid access to crucial instructions. Its L2 cache, at 6 MB, is larger but slower than the L1.
Cores and Clock Speeds
The Core 2 Extreme QX9300 features 4 total cores which can process 4 threads simultaneously. The multi-threading capability allows the CPU to execute multiple computational tasks in parallel. The base clock speed of the CPU is 2.5 GHz. Higher clock speeds result in higher performance for the same microarchitecture. The multiplier is unlocked, enabling overclocking for those seeking to push the CPU's performance further.
Integrated Graphics
The Core 2 Extreme QX9300 does not include an integrated graphics solution. A dedicated graphics card will be required if you require a monitor with your computer.
About the Intel Xeon Gold 6548N CPU
The Intel Xeon Gold 6548N is a 32-core (64-thread) processor built for the server CPU market. It launched in Q4 2023 with a suggested retail price of $3,875. It is part of Intel's Xeon Gold lineup, which is based on the Emerald Rapids-SP microarchitecture. The Gold 6548N is compatible with Intel Socket 4677 motherboards and is fabricated on Intel's 10 nm manufacturing process.
Memory and Cache
The Xeon Gold 6548N supports DDR5 memory and features a octa-channel memory controller, allowing it to utilize 8 memory modules simultaneously. In terms of cache, the Xeon Gold 6548N has multiple levels of cache. Its L1 cache, which is the smallest and fastest, is 80 KB in size, providing rapid access to crucial instructions. Its L2 cache, at 2 MB, is larger but slower than the L1. Its L3 cache, a shared resource among the CPU's cores, has a capacity of 60 MB.
Cores and Clock Speeds
The Xeon Gold 6548N features 32 total cores which can process 64 threads simultaneously. The multi-threading capability allows the CPU to execute multiple computational tasks in parallel. The base clock speed of the CPU is 2.8 GHz, and it can boost up to 4.1 GHz under heavy workloads. Higher clock speeds result in better performance for the same microarchitecture. The multiplier is locked, making it incapable of overclocking for pushing performance further.
Integrated Graphics
The Xeon Gold 6548N does not include an integrated graphics solution. A dedicated graphics card will be required if you require a monitor with your computer.
