Intel Xeon Platinum 8164 vs Intel Xeon E-2226GE

In this CPU comparison, we compare the Intel Xeon Platinum 8164 and the Intel Xeon E-2226GE and use benchmarks to check which processor is faster.

We compare the Intel Xeon Platinum 8164 26 core processor released in Q3/2017 with the Intel Xeon E-2226GE which has 6 CPU cores and was introduced in Q2/2019.

The Intel Xeon Platinum 8164 is a 26 core processor with a clock frequency of 2.00 GHz (3.70 GHz). The processor can compute 52 threads at the same time. The Intel Xeon E-2226GE clocks with 3.40 GHz (4.60 GHz), has 6 CPU cores and can calculate 6 threads in parallel.

The performance values of the processor's AI unit. The isolated NPU performance is specified here, the total AI performance (NPU+CPU+iGPU) can be higher. Processors with support for artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) can process many calculations, especially audio, image and video processing, much faster than classic processors.

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 768 GB of memory in a maximum of 6 memory channels is supported by the Intel Xeon Platinum 8164, while the Intel Xeon E-2226GE supports a maximum of 128 GB of memory with a maximum memory bandwidth of 42.7 GB/s enabled.

The Intel Xeon Platinum 8164 has a TDP of 150 W. The TDP of the Intel Xeon E-2226GE is 80 W. System integrators use the TDP of the processor as a guide when dimensioning the cooling solution.

The Intel Xeon Platinum 8164 has 36.00 MB cache and is manufactured in 14 nm. The cache of Intel Xeon E-2226GE is at 12.00 MB. The processor is manufactured in 14 nm.
