Intel Quad Core Xeon E5440, 2.83 GHz Processor Upgrade Features
Quad Core processing Maximizes performance and watt for greater performance per square foot for data center infrastructures and highly dense deployments. Increases performance and threading headroom for multi-threaded applications and heavy multi-tasking scenarios, plus helps boost system utilization through virtualization and application responsiveness.
Intel Core microarchitecture Better performance on multiple application types and user environments, while reducing cooling challenges, enabling more capable, denser data center deployments.
Large 12 MB of on-die L2 cache Increases efficiency of L2 cache-to-core data transfers, maximizing main memory to processor bandwidth and reducing latency. Up to 4 MB of L2 cache can be allocated to one core.
1333 MHz system bus
Fast, dedicated front-side buses for increased throughput.
Intel Virtualization Technology
New processor hardware enhancements that support software-based virtualization, enabling migration of more environments including 64 bit OS and applications to virtual environments.
Demand-Based Switching (DBS) with Enhanced Intel SpeedStep technology
Helps reduce average system power consumption and potentially improves system coustics.
