Intel Xeon 5120 Woodcrest 1.86GHz 4MB L2 Cache LGA 771 65W Dual-Core Active or 1U Processor

The Dua Core Intel Xeon 5100 series processors empower next-generation platforms with the capabilities to get more done on fewer systems, optimize data center density and improve business continuity. Intel Xeon 5100 series processors redefine what DP (Dual-Processor) servers and workstations should deliver to help business be more efficient, dependable and agile. The Dual Core Intel Xeon 5100 series, with 64-bit computing and greater power efficiency, is ideal for intense computing environments, business-critical applications and high-end workstations.

Powered by the Intel 5000 series chipset family and Fully Buffered DIMM (FBDIMM) technology, new dual-core Intel Xeon 5100 series-based platforms are expected to deliver up to 3 times the performance and over 3 times the performance/watt of previous-generation single core Intel Xeon Processors. Featuring a 1066MHz FSB, 4MB shared L2 cache and an operating speed of 1.86GHz with a TDP of only 65w, the dual-core Intel Xeon 5120 processor delivers impressive performance, reliability and versatility, and will help drive low total cost of ownership.

• Dual-core Processing with 4MB Shared L2 CacheThe Intel Xeon 5120 processor features two complete processor cores in one physical package. Significant performance headroom, especially for multi-threaded applications, helps boost system utilization through virtualization and application responsiveness. Its 4MB shared L2 cache increases efficiency of L2 cache-to-processor data transfer, maximizes main memory to processor bandwidth and reduces latency.
• Intel Virtualization Technology (Intel VT)Intel Virtualization Tehcnology makes it even easier to increase server utilization in your data center by consolidating more applications while improving data center reliability and adding robustness to virtualized systems.
• Intel Extended Memory 64 Technology (Intel EM64T)Enhances next-generation IA-32 platforms with 64-bit addressability and related instructions, allowing flexibility for 64-bit and 32-bit applications and operating systems.
• Demand-Based Switching (DBS) with Enhanced Intel SpeedStep Technology (EIST)EIST allows the system to dynamically adjust processor voltage and core frequency to reduce average system power consumption and potentially improves system acoustics.
• Execute Disable Bit (EDB)Intel’s Execute Disable Bit function can prevent certain classes of malicious “buffer overflow” attacks when combined with a supporting operating system. Execute Disable Bit allows the processor to classify areas in memory by where application code can execute and where it cannot. When a malicious worm attempts to insert code in the buffer, the processor disables code execution, preventing damage or worm propagation.
