Computex 2026: Intel’s next act in AI starts with Xeon 6+

Intel launched Xeon 6+ (up to 288 E-cores, 2.5x gen-over-gen performance, built on Intel 18A) alongside the E835 Ethernet series (up to 200GbE) and the Crescent Island GPU (480GB LPDDR5X, 350W air-cooled) at Computex 2026. For data centre and cloud teams, the stack targets agentic AI workloads with a focus on performance per watt and server consolidation — key metrics as rack density and energy costs increasingly drive infrastructure decisions.
