Intel Xeon Platinum 8480+ vs Intel Xeon CPU Max 9480

The Intel Xeon Platinum 8480+ is a 56 core processor with a clock frequency of 2.00 GHz (3.80 GHz). The processor can compute 112 threads at the same time. The Intel Xeon CPU Max 9480 clocks with 1.90 GHz (3.50 GHz), has 56 CPU cores and can calculate 112 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 Platinum 8480+, while the Intel Xeon CPU Max 9480 supports a maximum of 4096 GB of memory with a maximum memory bandwidth of 307.2 GB/s enabled.

The Intel Xeon Platinum 8480+ has a TDP of 350 W. The TDP of the Intel Xeon CPU Max 9480 is 350 W. System integrators use the TDP of the processor as a guide when dimensioning the cooling solution.

The Intel Xeon Platinum 8480+ has 105.00 MB cache and is manufactured in 10 nm. The cache of Intel Xeon CPU Max 9480 is at 112.50 MB. The processor is manufactured in 10 nm.
