During Hot Chips 2023, Intel showcased a brand new RISC-based processor design with 8 cores and 528 threads. There are several motivations that drove Intel to create such a unique chip design. The first is of course a crazy parallel...
READING NOW Intel showcased its RISC-architecture 8-core and 528-thread processor
66 threads per core
For highly parallel computing and intensive workloads, Intel has developed a new CPU with 8 cores and 528 threads. An example of these workloads is DARPA’s petabyte-scale graphics analytics workload HIVE program. To handle these workloads, DARPA was developing the Graph Analytics processor in 2021 that offers 1000x Perf/W over traditional computing.
A demo shown by Intel also details the power and clock speeds (Fmax) of the CPU. This particular 8-core processor has a TDP of 75W and a large part of its power budget is used by photonics. According to Intel, the cores themselves use 21 percent, or about 16W, of the total energy budget. Saying that the processor is balanced around 3.35-3.5 GHz with 35-55W power, Intel claims that it achieves linear performance as the number of cores increases by 10 times.
