Intel unveils new Xeon W-3500 and W-2500 workstation processors

Intel launches the Xeon W-3500 and W-2500 processors, offering top-tier performance for professionals in AI, engineering, and creative industries.

Despite recent challenges, Intel has introduced its latest range of workstation processors. The newly launched Intel Xeon W-3500 and W-2500 series are designed to meet the needs of professionals in industries requiring high computing power.

These processors are built for creators, engineers, researchers, and developers. Intel promises โ€œunparalleled compute power and reliability, enabling innovators to push boundaries and achieve new milestones.” These models offer significant performance upgrades tailored for demanding workflows.

Key features and performance

Leading the Xeon W-3500 series is the flagship Xeon W9-3495X, which comes equipped with 60 performance cores (P-cores) and 120 threads, making it highly capable for tasks requiring immense processing power. The W-2500 series, on the other hand, offers up to 26 P-cores and 52 threads, providing an excellent option for users needing a balanced yet powerful solution.

According to Intel, the Xeon W-3500 series delivers up to 10% higher multithreaded performance than its predecessor, the W-3400. This leap in performance is expected to make a notable difference in industries that rely on complex workloads, such as 3D rendering, simulation, and other data-intensive tasks.

The processors also come equipped with AI and machine learning features, including Intelโ€™s 3rd Generation Deep Learning Boost. This feature allows up to 26% faster performance in AI-related workloads, making these processors a great choice for AI integration, machine learning, and data analysis tasks.

Pricing and availability

The Intel Xeon W-3500 and W-2500 series processors are now available through HP, Dell, and Lenovo partners. Prices range from US$609 to US$5,889, depending on the model. Full system availability, including pre-built workstations featuring these processors, is expected to begin in September.

With the Xeon W-3500 and W-2500 series launches, Intel continues to support professionals with advanced computing needs, helping them stay at the cutting edge of their fields.
