Intel’s DDR5 and PCIe 5 platform plans leaked in Russia… by Huawei
Huawei’s in a bit more hot water with the US now that it has effectively leaked a little more of Intel’s server roadmap than the company was willing to share itself. At a recent event in St. Petersberg Huawei spilled the beans about Intel’s 2022 server part, Granite Rapids, along with a few more technical details for it and the Sapphire Rapids server chips than Intel covered at its own recent investor day.
Eagle Stream is the underlying platform for both 2021’s Sapphire Rapids and 2022’s Granite Rapids, but Intel hasn’t wanted to give much away about either of the new server parts. Huawei, however, has detailed the memory and interfaces used by the upcoming platform, introducing DDR5 memory and the PCIe 5.0 interface.
That’s going to make the US, and Intel in particular, even more unhappy with Huawei. The Chinese company has already been accused of being a security risk, facing a US ban because of it, and now it’s leaking technical information from one of the biggest US tech companies… in Russia.
