It has been reported that Intel's server platform, Caneland, features a point-to-point connection between chipsets and processors. This new feature allows the processors to be grouped together. In the Caneland system, four Tigertron processors are installed for a total of sixteen cores.
Supporting the four Tigerton processors is Intel's upcoming Clarksboro chipset. The upcoming chipset appears to dissipate plenty of heat and is shown with a fairly large all copper active cooled heat sink. Intel also demonstrated the performance of its Caneland system with POV-Ray Raytracing Rendering tests. The benchmark showed Tigerton delivering performance improvements greater than 16 times with the multi-threaded benchmark compared to the single-thread benchmark.
It is unknown what the system configuration and clock speeds of the demo systems were. Nevertheless, Tigerton lives and is expected next year.
