Succession

Knights Hill (KNH) was a planned successor to Knights Landing, a 10 nm many-core microarchitecture designed by intel for high performance computing.

History[edit]

XeonPhiGenerations.jpg

Announced in 2014, Knights Hill was originally planned to be delivered in 2016 and be manufactured on a 10 nm process. The architecture was also planned to power a number of supercomputers, including the United States highest-performance supercomputer, Aurora. Delays with 10 nm has pushed the product back to 2017. Eventually, in November 2017 Intel announced that Knights Hill would be cancelled:

One step we’re taking is to replace one of the future Intel® Xeon Phi™ processors (code name Knights Hill) with a new platform and new microarchitecture specifically designed for exascale.

Brands[edit]

Knights Hill was branded as 3rd generation Xeon Phi

Process Technology[edit]

Knights Hill was intended to be fabricated on Intel's 10 nm process.

Architecture[edit]

Intel released very few architectural details regarding Knights Hill.

Key changes from Knights Landing[edit]
