While Intel continues to push Gaudi 3 as a more affordable alternative to Nvidia’s GPUs and develops a future rack-scale platform based on its next-generation Jaguar Shores chips, the company has also made a priority to position Xeon as the best host CPU for AI servers.Intel said one of its three newly revealed Xeon 6 processors designed to “boost GPU performance across demanding AI workloads” will serve as the host CPU for Nvidia’s new Blackwell Ultra-based DGX B300 system.The semiconductor giant says the new Xeon 6776P processor serving as the host CPU for Nvidia’s Blackwell Ultra-based DGX B300 system features its new Priority Core Turbo technology as well as Intel Speed Select – Turbo Frequency to enable ‘customizable CPU core frequencies’ for the purpose of maximizing GPU performance. Is AI an environmental risk or advantage ?
