The Xeon-3175X was equipped 28 cores and 56 streams – standard frequency is 3,1 GHz, and Turbo Boost Mode 2.0 it can increase up to 4,3 GHz. It is worth noting, the processor is characterized by an unlocked multiplier and can customize to fit your needs.
The top 6 characterized Xeon-channel memory controller DDR4-2666, support for ECC error correction, 1 MB L2 cache per core, 38,5 MB shared L3 cache controller and PCIe 3.0 with 48 dataline.

At the first glance resembles a newly processor server model Xeon Platinum 8180. The processor uses the socket LGA 3647, but its a TDP is estimated at 255 AT (which means, that requires water cooling is effective).
As I mentioned earlier, processor suitable for assembly workstations for professional applications, using a large number of streams (eg, design, video editing or 3D visualization). In the end, the processor has to compete with models AMD Ryzen Threadripper 2970WX and 2990WX – first reviews show, In many tests, it is superior to them in the performance.
The Xeon-3175X is a proposal for the most demanding and wealthy clients - a model has been estimated at 2999 dollars (it is much cheaper, чем Xeon 8180). To this must be added the price is not the cheapest motherboard for LGA 3467, 6-set channel RAM and special cooling. Taken together, all of the workstation can cost as new budget car.
