Intel has introduced updated Sapphire Rapids Refresh processors for high-performance desktop computers and workstations. The Xeon W-2500 and W-3500 family chips offer more cores, higher clock speeds, and different TDPs, but use the same core architecture and offer support for the same RAM (up to DDR5-4800) as their predecessors, the Xeon W -2400 and W-3400.

The Xeon W-2500 processor line includes models with up to 26 cores and Processor Base Power (PBP) up to 250 W. The flagship processor of the line, the 26-core and 52-thread Xeon W7-2595X with a frequency of up to 4.8 GHz, is estimated by Intel at $2039. It, like other W-2500 series processors with the “X” suffix, has an unlocked multiplier and supports additional overclocking, which can attract not only workstation users, but also extreme overclocking enthusiasts.
The Xeon W-2500 series of processors consists of 26-, 22-, 18-, 14-, 12-, 10- and 8-core models. 10-core and 8-core models support DDR5-4400 memory, which distinguishes them from other models in this line. The most affordable chip in the series is the Xeon W3-2525 chip, costing $609.
The Xeon W-3500 processor series includes seven models that offer from 16 to 60 processing cores. They are designed for intensive workloads and offer significantly higher multi-threaded performance compared to W-2500 processors.
The flagship processor of the line is the 60-core and 120-thread Xeon W9-3595X. It has a base frequency of 2.0 GHz and can automatically overclock to 4.8 GHz. The base processor power (PBP) is stated at 385 W. The cost of the chip is $5889.
In addition to the flagship Xeon W9-3595X, the Xeon W-3500 processor line offers overclocking support for 44-, 32- and 20-core models. Both series of Xeon W-3500 and W-2500 processors are compatible with the same platform as their predecessors – the new products are designed to work with motherboards based on the Intel W790 chipset with an LGA 4677 processor socket.
