Did you guys know that the Intel Xeon 5500 is the latest generation processing core? Our new blade systems are based on this chip technology and they are already powering High Performance Computing (HPC) around the world. This processor doubles the amount of tasks a computer can perform because it allows one chip to act as two chips. Whoa, I call that efficient!
Watch our unveiling of Sun's Open Network System on April 14th in Las Vegas, baby..
Here are more tech specs on this super chip:
- Dynamic scalability, managed cores, threads, cache, interfaces, and power for energy-efficient performance on-demand.
- Design and performance scalability for servers, workstations, notebooks, and desktops
- Intelligent performance on-demand with Intel Turbo Boost Technology it takes advantage of the processor's power and thermal headroom.
- Increased performance on highly-threaded applications with Intel HT Technology, bringing high-performance applications into mainstream computing
- Scalable shared memory
features memory distributed to each processor with integrated memory
controllers
- Multi-level shared cache improves performance and efficiency by reducing latency to frequently used data
