DDR3 memory support up to 1333 MHz
Supports up to thirty-two GB dual-channel DDR3 Error Correcting Code (ECC) memory which checks and corrects system memory errors
Flexible memory configuration options with support for up to four non-ECC or ECC unregistered DIMMs or up to six ECC Registered DIMMs
Integrated PCI-Express* 2.0 I/O
Integrated serial I/O technology provides a direct connection between the processor and PCI Express* component/adapters with bandwidth up to 8 GB/s on PCI-Express 2.0 x16 interface.
The PCI-Express 2.0 x16 interface can be bifurcated to either two x8 PCI Express or four x4 PCI-Express interfaces for maximum design flexibility.
PCI-Express offers higher bandwidth, lower latency, and fewer I/O bottlenecks than PCI and PCI-X.
Intelligent next-generation Intel® microarchitecture adapts to the workload, automatically increasing processor frequency for greater performance.
Intel® Turbo Boost Technology
Better performance enabled by Intel® Turbo Boost Technology, increasing processor frequency and enabling faster speeds when conditions allow
Intel® Intelligent Power Technology
Lower energy costs while minimizing impact to performance by automatically putting processor and memory into the lowest available power state.
Integrated power gates
Power to the individual processor cores is reduced to near-zero power, independent of other operating cores.
Intel® Virtualization Technology◊
A suite of virtualization-specific hardware enhancements to Intel® processors, chipsets, and I/O devices to increase application reliability, security and overall system performance
Enhancements to Intel Virtualization Technology performance that further speeds up virtual machine transition (entry/exit) times. Supports hardware assist for I/O virtualization using Intel Virtualization Technology for Directed I/O (Intel® VT-d).
Intel® 64 architectureΛ
Flexibility for 64-bit and 32-bit applications and operating systems
Java* performance benchmark
Intel® Xeon® processor unsurpassed for 1P Java* application performance.
◊ Intel® Virtualization Technology (Intel® VT), Intel® Trusted Execution Technology (Intel® TXT), and Intel® 64 architecture require a computer system with a processor, chipset, BIOS, enabling software and/or operating system, device drivers and applications designed for these features. Performance will vary depending on your configuration. Contact your vendor for more information.
Λ 64-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. 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.
