This could be useful for our datacenter, Very useful
those ARM cores are slow, what a 20 core xeon can do is far faster
two dual-socket server nodes, and support for up to 1TB of DDR4 2400Mhz memory per node, and 8 NVMe PCIe Gen3 x 4 .
Then again there is the new intel Xeon, Knights Landing which supposedly will sport 72-cores and a upcoming Broadwell-E i7-6950X with 10 physical CPU cores and support for 20 threads.
Come along a bit since the time when we had pentium 4's with 1 core and hyperthreading (I think there was also a pentium D with 2 cores).
All this sounds good, but I keep hearing that there is still a lot of hassle setting up games and a lot of other programs to use these desktop versions to their potential (fully utilising all the cores and threads). But from what I understand, it is good for servers.
