IBM Corporation - 73P9074

• Composite Theoretical Performance (CTP): 8160 MTOPS
• NetBurst microarchitecture and Hyper-Threading technology help provide enhanced performance, throughput and scalability for multiprocessing server applications on blade servers
• 533MHz system bus, which transfers information from the processor to the rest of the system, runs up to four times faster than the 133MHz system bus used on Pentium III processors.Also, providing increased bandwidth to route traffic on front end of Internet, preventing the bus from becoming a bottleneck

This 3.06GHz Intel Xeon processor with 533MHz front-side bus speed helps deliver processing power, throughput and headroom for peak performance to your application-intensive blade servers. It features the new Intel NetBurst microarchitecture, which increases throughput via a 533MHz system bus and enhanced 512KB Level 2 cache. It also features new Hyper-Threading technology which allows it to execute more than one thread per processor. These advances increase the throughput of your blade applications and enable outstanding scalability for Internet infrastructure and network servers. These enhancements can add up to faster response times, support for more simultaneous users and increased transaction workloads. This processor is designed to provide performance headroom for unpredictable workloads and escalating computing needs. Coupled with DDR memory, this processor delivers the processing power and bandwidth that typically comes with more robust platforms. By taking advantage of the performance, flexibility and compatibility of the Intel Xeon processors, businesses can closely match each blade solution to their specific application and business requirement. The result is a more effective infrastructure and a standards-based computing environment that can quickly adapt to changing needs
