The first benchmarks of Intel’s Ivy Bridge-EP processors are turned in with a chip with ten cores, while the predecessor, the Sandy Bridge-EP series, must still be ge lwa site. The tests were carried out on an engineering sample is rotated.
With probably still about a year to go before the introduction of the Ivy Bridge-EP series, Intel on 22nm produced Ivy Bridge processors for servers, the benchmarks are still a bit premature and probably not the most reliable indication for the expected performance. Nevertheless, it did a tester in Taiwan already have a socket2011 processor to obtain the at 2GHz geklokte Ivy Bridge at some benchmarks to topics.
In the twisted tests, including Cinebench, Fritzchess and Super Pi, the Ivy Bridge processor is slightly faster than a Sandy Bridge cpu that is also on 2GHz was clocked. The difference between the 32nm-Sandy Bridge and 22nm Ivy Bridge cores turned out to be only a few percent, but given the expected launch date of Ivy Bridge-EP processors, there is yet significant shifts occur.
The biggest change of Ivy Bridge compared to Sandy Bridge is not, however, the computing power; Ivy Bridge is “just” a die shrink of Sandy Bridge from 32 to 22nm. The improvements are found mainly in the gpu and, to an even greater degree in the power. The Ivy Bridge EP-series can also, with more cores to be equipped than a Sandy Bridge-EP-cpu. The latter can get up to eight cores, while Ivy Bridge-EP processors feature up to ten cores, with an increase in L3 cache of 20 to 30MB.
