Intel pushed the first server CPUs which use 22 nm tri-gate technologies with new 17W part being the emerging micro-server segment. The x 86 giant also launched new 32 nm server chips, of which an entry-level part narrows AMD’s price, lead in four-socket servers.

The Intel’s first shipment of 22 nm server chips belongs to Xeon E3-1200 v2 family which is based on its Ivy Bridge architecture. Intel plans to ship a dual-core Atom based server chip consuming just 6W Centerton later this year. The Atom based server is the Intel’s first design to support virtualization and ECC memory needed in servers.

Intel also launched a new batch of E5-class 32 nm Xeon chips which are based on its existing Sandy Bridge architecture. They include the E5-4600 family supporting up four processors in a single server. However, one member of that family are available to sell now for as little as $551 in quantities of 1000.

Generally speaking, Intel pushed 11 Ivy Bridge server processors and 17 Sandy Bridge CPUs. The chips will be needed by a number of OEMs for servers, and the OEMs include IBM, Lenovo, SGI, Asus, Dell, HP, Acer and Huawei and so on.
