Intel plans Xeon E7-v3 CPUs with up to 18 Cores
 

It seems that Intel is planning a version of its Xeon E7-v3 CPU with up to 18 Cores under the bonnet.

CPU-World.com has dug up a list of specifications for some of the upcoming Xeon E7 series processors from Intel.

The information has not been confirmed by Intel but since the list comes from a CSV (Comma Separated Value) price list for the X-series server products from IBM it is likely to be reliable.
