Intel Xeon Gold 6434 vs Intel Xeon w5-2445

The Intel Xeon Gold 6434 is a 8 core processor with a clock frequency of 3.70 GHz (4.10 GHz). The processor can compute 16 threads at the same time. The Intel Xeon w5-2445 clocks with 3.10 GHz (4.60 GHz), has 10 CPU cores and can calculate 20 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 4096 GB of memory in a maximum of 8 memory channels is supported by the Intel Xeon Gold 6434, while the Intel Xeon w5-2445 supports a maximum of 2048 GB of memory with a maximum memory bandwidth of 153.6 GB/s enabled.

The Intel Xeon Gold 6434 has a TDP of 195 W. The TDP of the Intel Xeon w5-2445 is 175 W. System integrators use the TDP of the processor as a guide when dimensioning the cooling solution.

The Intel Xeon Gold 6434 has 22.50 MB cache and is manufactured in 10 nm. The cache of Intel Xeon w5-2445 is at 26.25 MB. The processor is manufactured in 10 nm.
