Intel Launches Kaby Lake Xeon E3-1200 v6-processors

Intel updated its Xeon processor line by adding new four core models, the new processors are all based on Kaby Lake architecture. The E3-1200 v6-family of products have slightly higher clock frequencies and are a notch better on power efficiency.

If you look at the specifications then they match the consumer desktop parts pretty closely. The Xeon models however have support for ECC memory and Intel's vPro.

Most models have been clocked 0.2 GHz higher on the turbo bins. The TDP decreased from 80 Watts towards 73 and 72 Watts (IGP difference). Motherboard like Z170 and Z270 will be compatible after a firmware update since the processor is not based on a new socket.

E3-1280 v6	4/8	3,9GHz	4,2GHz	8 MB	-	-	72W	$612
E3-1275 v6	4/8	3,8GHz	4,2GHz	8 MB	P630	1150MHz	73W	$339

Looks like Intel Is the one that decides when the market needs to shift to 8 cores not the other way around.

4 core chips are far from dead.

I wonder how these top end xeons groom this line up compare to the 7700k. Also, anything about pricing?

Really happy Intel went back to consumer motherboard support. The E3-1230 v6 is a great cpu which costs $50 less than the i7 7700 and gives you the 4 cores and 8 threads.
