The Intel Xeon D-2775TE is a server/workstation processor with 16 cores, launched in February 2022, at an MSRP of $1751. It is part of the Xeon D lineup, using the Ice Lake-D architecture with BGA 2579. Thanks to Intel Hyper-Threading the core-count is effectively doubled, to 32 threads. Xeon D-2775TE has 25 MB of L3 cache and operates at 2000 MHz by default, but can boost up to 3.1 GHz, depending on the workload. Intel is building the Xeon D-2775TE on a 10 nm production process, the transistor count is unknown. The multiplier is locked on Xeon D-2775TE, which limits its overclocking capabilities.
With a TDP of 100 W, the Xeon D-2775TE consumes a good deal of power, so decent cooling is needed. Intel's processor supports DDR4 memory with a quad-channel interface. The highest officially supported memory speed is 2933 MT/s, but with overclocking (and the right memory modules) you can go even higher. ECC memory is supported, too, which is an important capability for mission-critical systems, to avoid data corruption. For communication with other components in the computer, Xeon D-2775TE uses a PCI-Express Gen 4 connection. This processor lacks integrated graphics, you might need a graphics card.
Hardware virtualization is available on the Xeon D-2775TE, which greatly improves virtual machine performance. Additionally, IOMMU virtualization (PCI passthrough) is supported, so that guest virtual machines may directly use host hardware. Programs using Advanced Vector Extensions (AVX) will run on this processor, boosting performance for calculation-heavy applications. Besides AVX, Intel has added support for the newer AVX2 and AVX-512 instructions, too.
