Xeon E-2488

Intel Xeon E-2400 Series First Look

The reviewer expresses disappointment in the Xeon E-2488 and the E-2400 series, citing a lack of efficiency cores compared to consumer counterparts, fewer threads, reduced L2 cache, and the removal of integrated graphics. The reviewer notes that while it performs well in single-threaded tasks, multi-threaded performance is significantly hampered by the lack of efficiency cores and aggressive power throttling, leading to a conclusion that it is a compilation of compromises rather than a compelling server-class product.
