POWER10
Sign in to savePower10 is a superscalar, multithreading, multi-core microprocessor family, based on the open source Power ISA, announced in August 2020 and available from September 2021. The processor is designed to have 15 cores available. The main features of Power10 are higher performance per watt and better memory and I/O architectures, with a focus on artificial intelligence (AI) workloads. Each Power10 core has doubled up on most functional units compared to its predecessor POWER9. Power10 is available in a range of IBM models and is supported by operating systems including Linux 5.9 and PowerVM. The b

Power10 is a superscalar, multithreading, multi-core microprocessor family, based on the open source Power ISA, announced in August 2020 and available from September 2021. The processor is designed to have 15 cores available. The main features of Power10 are higher performance per watt and better memory and I/O architectures, with a focus on artificial intelligence (AI) workloads. Each Power10 core has doubled up on most functional units compared to its predecessor POWER9. Power10 is available in a range of IBM models and is supported by operating systems including Linux 5.9 and PowerVM. The branding is unusual in that its name is not capitalized like POWER9 and all other previous POWER processors.
== Description == The Power10 superscalar, multithreading, multi-core microprocessor family is based on the open source Power ISA. It was announced in August 2020 at the Hot Chips conference. Systems with Power10 CPUs were generally available from September 2021 in the IBM Power10 Enterprise E1080 server. The processor is designed to have 15 cores available, but a spare core will be included during manufacture to cost-effectively allow for yield issues. The main features of Power10 are higher performance per watt and better memory and I/O architectures, with a focus on artificial intelligence (AI) workloads.
