The Dual-Core Intel Xeon 5100 series processors empower next-generation platforms with the capabilities to get more done, optimize data center density and improve business continuity. The 5150 redefines 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, dual-core 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, these new platforms are expected to deliver up to 3 times the performance/watt of previous-generation single-core Intel Xeon Processors.
Featuring a 1333MHz FSB, 4MB shared L2 cache and an operating speed of 2.66GHz with a TDP of only 65W, the dual-core Intel Xeon 5150 processor delivers impressive performance, reliability and versatility, and will help drive low total cost of ownership.

Incredible Power
- Pros: Blazingly fast versus Opterons. Surpisingly a greater value than most of the Core 2 Duo line, this in most cases outperforms the Core 2 Extreme.
- Cons: FB-Ram has had its death sentence from Intel and AMD and is ridiculously expensive versus regular DDR2 in the desktop equivalent.
- Other Thoughts: Running 2 Xeon 5150's is overkill for virtually any desktop out there. Especially considering a single 3 GHZ will outperform 2 of these for gaming.
VERY FAST
- Pros: Everything. fast FSB, 4 MB Cache, Core 2 Architecture
- Cons: none so far
- Other Thoughts: Theres 2 of these in My mac pro, and It is extremely fast.

Fast
- Pros: Built a Win 2k3 Server around this proc. Threw 8GB ram and ran SQL 2005. Good speeds. Need another one now.
- Cons: None so far

Highlights
 |
Dual-core Processing with 4MB Shared L2 Cache
The Intel Xeon 5150 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.
