Question 1

This product is labeled "server processor," yet it isn't labeled under "xeon DP" or "xeon MP." Is this an oversight or is this unit not meant for Dual Processors nor Multi Processors?

Accepted Answer

Intel labels this processor for a workstation computer. I am using it for my personal home server, which is work very well.

Question 2

can you suggest a heat sink for this processor please?

Accepted Answer

That depends on your motherboard. I needed the narrow ILM, so I got the Dynatron R13 70mm 2 Ball Bearing CPU Cooler.

It's a bit loud at first, but after a couple of weeks of break-in, it quiets down.
Temps never get above 73C at 100% load.
