^φ64-bit computing on Intel architecture requires a computer system with a processor, chipset, BIOS, operating system, device drivers and applications enabled for Intel® 64 architecture (formerly known as Intel® Extended Memory 64 Technology, or Intel® EM64T). Processors will not operate (including 32-bit operation) without an Intel 64 architecture-enabled BIOS. Performance will vary depending on your hardware and software configurations. Consult with your system vendor for more information. See www.intel.com/technology/architecture-silicon/intel64/index.htm for more information or consult with your system vendor.

¹Enhanced Intel SpeedStep® technology is available on Intel® Xeon® processors with an 800MHz system bus at operating frequencies of 3.40 GHz and above.

²Memory sparing and memory mirroring support may require a BIOS update.
