Powerful and powerhungry server CPU for the paranoid.

This ought to be the fastest CPU with an ECC memory controller that does not have the AMD Secure Technology or Intel Management Engine hardware backdoor. A great CPU for the paranoid hacker.

It consists internally of 2 separate nodes, each having separate memory controllers and caches, and each having 4 "supercores" with 2 integer cores each, leading up to 2x4x2=16 cores. Depending on how you want to use it, you can configure it to share all memory between the nodes, or use software that can take advantage of twice the memory bandwidth.

Its 140W TDP requires adequate cooling though.
