Intel Xeon Platinum 8468 vs Intel Atom C2530

In this CPU comparison, we compare the Intel Xeon Platinum 8468 and the Intel Atom C2530 and use benchmarks to check which processor is faster.

We compare the Intel Xeon Platinum 8468 48 core processor released in Q1/2023 with the Intel Atom C2530 which has 4 CPU cores and was introduced in Q3/2013.

The Intel Xeon Platinum 8468 is a 48 core processor with a clock frequency of 2.10 GHz (3.80 GHz). The processor can compute 96 threads at the same time. The Intel Atom C2530 clocks with 1.70 GHz (2.00 GHz), has 4 CPU cores and can calculate 4 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 4096 GB of memory in a maximum of 8 memory channels is supported by the Intel Xeon Platinum 8468, while the Intel Atom C2530 supports a maximum of 32 GB of memory with a maximum memory bandwidth of 21.3 GB/s enabled.

The Intel Xeon Platinum 8468 has a TDP of 350 W. The TDP of the Intel Atom C2530 is 9 W. System integrators use the TDP of the processor as a guide when dimensioning the cooling solution.

The Intel Xeon Platinum 8468 has 105.00 MB cache and is manufactured in 10 nm. The cache of Intel Atom C2530 is at 2.00 MB. The processor is manufactured in 22 nm.
