Grab yourself a Pint Glass at https://craftcomputing.store Intel Xeon 6 launched around a month ago, with an all new ground-up architecture, and twice the density of their outgoing 5th Gen Scalable CPUs. Granite Rapids is a massive step forward for Intel, but is it the right choice for you? Today, we're taking a look not just at Intel Xeon 6, but at SMBs who may still have Xeons from 2016 or 2017, and if upgrading might make sense for you. But first... What am I drinking??? The Brewing Project (Eau Claire, WI) 'Dare Mighty Things' Hazy IPA (6.1%) Intel did provide the server for this review, but this is in no way a sponsored video. All content and opinions are 100% my own. *Links to items below may be affiliate links for which I may be compensated* For Intel Xeon 6, currently all systems are OEM-only. Retail release to follow.
