An alleged internal document from the chip giant Intel, who recently released its earnings report for Q3 of 2012, reveals plans to introduce a 10-core Xeon E5-2600 V2 Ivy Bridge CPU by the 3rd quarter of 2013. The new CPU will be compatible with the Socket R LGA 2011 motherboards, and is said to max out at 20 threads through Hyperthreading.

Bearing 30MB of L3 cache, this yet to be unveiled CPU from the Ivy Bridge line will support up to 1866MHz of DD3 RAM. But if 10-core sounds wow now, wait until you hear about the 12-core rumore processor in the making.
