IBM Corporation - 13N0675

• 800MHz front-side bus speed increases system throughput by up to 50% compared to legacy products with slower bus speeds
• 1MB L2 cache support provides the scalability to meet the changing needs of e-business applications

This Intel Xeon processor option with Intel Extended Memory 64 Technology (EM64T) provides an optimized solution for dual processor-based IBM eServer xSeries servers and IntelliStation Pro workstations. This next-generation processor platform is designed to deliver improvements in memory bandwidth, throughput speed, power consumption and overall system performance. A rich harvest of innovation addresses the requirements of today's data-hungry systems and software applications that demand peak performance across a range of functions, such as financial and scientific modeling to visualization and database retrieval applications. This new Intel offering features an advanced processor architecture that interacts with an enhanced chipset to help reduce system bottlenecks by balancing performance between the processor, I/O and memory. The bottom line is this new Intel Xeon processor platform will offer improved performance, reliability, serviceability and power savings for enterprise solutions. In order to maximize the performance gains of your IntelliStation workstation or xSeries server, consider upgrading to a second Intel Xeon processor. The significant performance gains achieved by fully populating your dual processor-based workstation or server far outweigh the incremental cost. By fully populating your workstation or xSeries server, you can immediately reap the price/performance benefits and maximize the return on investment.
