Additionally, the Xeon E7-8860 sports Intel's Hyper-Threading technology and thermal monitoring technologies.
The Xeon E7-8860's 10 cores allow it to handle up to 10 simultaneous tasks while its Hyper-Threading technology doubles that to allow for 20 simultaneous instructions, making the Xeon E7-8860 ideal for extreme workstation use. Its Turbo Boost technology allows the Xeon E7-8860 to automatically increase its core clock speed fro 2.26 GHz to 2.666 GHz as needed to ensure minimal slowdown even at maximum load. Meanwhile, the Xeon E7-8860's thermal monitoring technologies ensure an automatic system shutdown in the event that the Xeon E7-8860 becomes too hot, preventing permanent system damage.
