A ton of designers or developers are doing work with graphics or compiling on the go - both very CPU bottlenecked operations, and the Xeon is targeting this audience.
Me personally I do a lot of Android development, and waiting 20 seconds to compile each time I make a change is a huge bottleneck.
- danparsonson 11y agoSure, but how does the Xeon improve over the i7 in that respect?
- mappu 11y agoE3s are basically i7s with different binning, e.g. there are E3s without the IGP ; so if an i7 part has yield issues with the IGP, it can be disabled, binned as a Xeon E3 and sold more cheaply than the equivalent i7. 2P/4P multi-cpu is the other major feature of Xeon which only appears in E5/E7.
