Intel and IBM demonstrate 128-thread Nehalem-EX server

By

Intel’s Kennedy Brown and IBM’s Kevin Powell show you a sneak peek of an 8 socket, 64 core, 128 thread IBM server based on Intel’s Nehalem-EX processor in this slick YouTube video.

In production later this year, the Nehalem-EX processor will feature up to eight cores inside a single chip supporting 16 threads and 24Mb of cache. Its performance increase will be dramatic, posting the highest-ever jump from a previous generation processor.
