13N0694 - IBM 3.16GHz 667MHz FSB 1MB Cache Intel Xeon MP Processor

The xSeries x366 server will be using Intel's next-generation processor platform. This new platform is designed to deliver improvements in memory bandwidth, throughput speed, power consumption and overall system performance to provide an optimized solution for MP processor-based servers. This rich stable of technology improvements addresses the requirements of today's data-hungry systems and software that crave performance. These software applications range from financial and scientific modeling to visualization and data base retrieval. These applications are also enhanced with the new Intel Extended Memory 64 Technology that provides headroom support for future growth. This advanced Intel Xeon MP processor contains a 1MB L2 memory cache that reduces or even eliminates system bottlenecks by balancing performance between the processor, I/O and memory. The bottom line is this new Intel Xeon Processor MP platform will offer improved performance, reliability, serviceability and power savings for enterprise solutions. In order to maximize the performance gains of your xSeries server, consider upgrading to a second Intel Xeon Processor MP. The incremental performance gains achieved by fully populating your MP processor-based server far outweigh the incremental costs. By fully populating your xSeries server, you enjoy the price/performance benefits and maximize the return on investment for a relatively small incremental cost.
