Actually, as strange as it might sound considering we are talking about a CPU that costs 2.800$ it actually is a bargain compared to the outgoing model that retails for 7000$

ooppps Somehow I overlooked this.Not really, that's a 4xxx series chip as opposed to the 2xxx series.
Pic At the OCP Summit last week in San Jose, California, Intel quickly mentioned it will later this year ship Xeon processors with built-in FPGAs.
Chipzilla will also release open-source software libraries allowing people to program these customizable gate arrays to take workloads off the CPUs and perform them in hardware. Intel has been mulling this hybrid design for a while, and conveniently bought FPGA biz Altera last year.
Our sister publication The Next Platform snapped a slide of the Xeon-FPGA mutant at the conference, and noted that the hybrid package will use Broadwell EP CPU cores and Altera Arria 10 GX FPGA designs. In the photo, we can count 15 CPU cores...
Beginning April 2016, the HP Z640 Workstation also supports the latest Intel Xeon E5-2600 v4 (Broadwell, 14nm)
processor family.
Thanks for sharing dooon. Looks like March 31th is the date, they can still claim Q1.
BTW as I mentioned earlier in this thread some Broadwell-EP parts are already being sold around the world:
ShopBLT: XEON E5-2687W V4 12C 3.10G 160W CPU BROADWELL @ US

Waiting for Broadwell-E now.
CPU World says LGA2011V3, but that box says LGA2011V4.

Will there be new x99 motherboards for Broadwell-E or will they pretty much stay the same? Thinking of ordering some parts soon.
Ha! I knew it! Looks like Broadwell-E still on track for q2 for a june Computex launch though, BAH!
I saw this:
Intel Xeon E5-2602 V4 4/8 5.1 GHz TBD 5 MB 165W
Wow, gamers be like !@_@

I prepared ASUS Z10PA-D8 for them, but failed to boot with BIOS 3003
ASUS support says "CPU E5-2687W v4 is not comptible with your motherboard as per our support list." ...yeah, I know I know it.
Now I'm waiting for BIOS updating...hope it will save my Z10PA-D8...
Arria 10 GX? That sounds odd since that's a TSMC 20nm design. Where are the Intel 14nm Altera FPGA?Here's what an Intel Broadwell Xeon with a built-in FPGA looks like
www.theregister.co.uk/2016/03/14/intel_xeon_fpga/?mt=1458057192203
I've received an e-mail about ASRock X99 board's latest BIOS.
Soon, I've got X99Extreme4 and updated the BIOS to 3.30.
Now E5-2687W v4 has successfully booted
and CPU-Z, HWiNFO, CINEBENCH R15 etc.
To my surprise, All cores turbo multiplier is x32
Though CINEBENCH R15 score 2019cb is not so bad as 1 CPU system,
but it looks that 'lower-clock and more-cores' v4 CPUs are more suitable
for pure rendering system.
# As I also use 3D-CAD(Creo(Pro/E)), I also want single thread performance...

How much does it clock down under AVX loads?
