Sapphire Rapids is a codename for Intel's fourth generation Xeon server processors based on Intel 7, which is a rebranded 10 nm Enhanced SuperFin process.[2][3][4] Sapphire Rapids CPUs are designed for data centers while mainstream desktop Alder Lake processors are intended for the wider public.[5]

Sapphire Rapids was intended as part of the Eagle Stream server platform.[6][7] In addition, it will be powering Aurora, an exascale supercomputer in the United States, at Argonne National Laboratory.[8]

History

Sapphire Rapids has been a long-standing Intel project in development for over five years and has been subjected to many delays.[9] Intel CEO Pat Gelsinger tacitly blamed the previous Intel leadership as a reason for Sapphire Rapid's many delays.[9] Sapphire Rapids was originally scheduled for a launch in the first half of 2022.[10] It was later scheduled for release in Q4 2022 but was again delayed to early 2023.[11] The specific launch date of January 10, 2023 was not revealed by Intel until November 2022.[1]
