Intel Xeon D-2712T vs Intel Atom C3950

The Intel Xeon D-2712T is a 4 core processor with a clock frequency of 1.90 GHz (3.00 GHz). The processor can compute 8 threads at the same time. The Intel Atom C3950 clocks with 1.70 GHz (2.20 GHz), has 16 CPU cores and can calculate 16 threads in parallel.

Processors with the support of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) can process many calculations, especially audio, image and video processing, much faster than classic processors. Algorithms for ML improve their performance the more data they have collected via software. ML tasks can be processed up to 10,000 times faster than with a classic processor.

Graphics (iGPU) integrated into the processor not only enable image output without having to rely on a dedicated graphics solution, but can also efficiently accelerate video playback.

A photo or video codec that is accelerated in hardware can greatly accelerate the working speed of a processor and extend the battery life of notebooks or smartphones when playing videos.

Up to 1024 GB of memory in a maximum of 4 memory channels is supported by the Intel Xeon D-2712T, while the Intel Atom C3950 supports a maximum of 256 GB of memory with a maximum memory bandwidth of 38.4 GB/s enabled.

The Intel Xeon D-2712T has a TDP of 65 W. The TDP of the Intel Atom C3950 is 24 W. System integrators use the TDP of the processor as a guide when dimensioning the cooling solution.

The Intel Xeon D-2712T has 15.00 MB cache and is manufactured in 10 nm. The cache of Intel Atom C3950 is at 16.00 MB. The processor is manufactured in 14 nm.
