A Giant Leap for IT and Business CapabilitiesIn many organizations, IT infrastructure has begun to constrain business efficiency and growth. For the past decade, IT has rapidly added low-cost hardware to accommodate business growth. But with data centers now stretched to capacity in terms of power, cooling, and floor space, IT infrastructure is actually limiting IT from investing in innovation. IDC estimates that for every dollar IT spends on hardware to support new users and applications, they spend another 50 cents on power and cooling for existing hardware.Processor Manufacturer: IntelProcessor Core: Quad-core (4 Core)Clock Speed: 2.40 GHzOverclocking Speed: 2.80 GHzQuickPath Interconnect: 5.86 GT/sL2 Cache: 1 MBL3 Cache: 8 MB64-bit Processing: YesProcess Technology: 45 nmProcessor Socket: Socket FCLGA1366Input Voltage: 1.4 V DCThermal Design Power: 80 WThermal Specification: 168.8Width: 1.7Depth: 1.8"Compatibility: Intel Server Board S5520URIntel Server Board S5520HCIntel Workstation Board S5520SCIntel Server Board S5500BCIntel Server Board S5500WBIntel Server Board S5500HCVIntel Server Board S5500HVIntel Server Board S5500WB12VIntel Compute Module MFS5520VIRIntel Server Board S5520HCTIntel Server Board S5520URTIntel Server System SR2625URLXIntel Server System SR2600URBRPIntel Server System SR1690WBIntel Server System SR2612URIntel Server System SR1670HVIntel Server System SR1630BCIntel Server System SC5650HCBRPIntel Server System SR1600URIntel Server System SR1625URIntel Server System SR1680MVIntel Workstation System SC5650SCWSIntel Server System SR1630BCRIntel Server System SC5650BCDPRIntel Server System SC5650HCBRPRIntel Server System SR2625URLXRIntel Server System SR2625URLXTIntel Server System SR2625URBRPIntel Server System SR2625URBRPRIntel Server System SR1600URRIntel Server System SR1600URHSIntel Server System SR1600URHSRIntel Server System SR1625URRIntel Server System SR1625URSASIntel Server System SR1625URSASRIntel Server System SR2600URBRPRIntel Server System SR2600URLXIntel Server System SR2600URLXRIntel Server System SR2600URSATAIntel Server System SR2600URSATARIntel Server System SR2612URRIntel Server System SR1695WBACIntel Server System SC5650BCDPIntel Server System SR1695WBDCIntel Server System SR1690WBRCompatible Chipsets:Intel 5520 ChipsetIntel 5500 Chipset"
The Quad Core Xeon E5540 processor delivers impressive performance --up to 4 times that of earlier generation single-core processors. Each of the cores has an L1 and L2 cache, and an additional 8MB of shared L3 cache; this lets the Xeon E5540 handle heavy loads and large data sets. The 64bit cores are designed to handle all of today’s x86 32bit software with ease, and can effortlessly migrate to 64bit software.
You also get Intel Virtualization Technology hardware enhancements that support software-based virtualization. It works with VMware, Virtual PC and XenSource, as well as virtualization products from an increasing number of software vendors. Virtualization Technology combined with the processor’s great power efficiency lets you run virtual environments on blade systems with fewer cooling challenges. The end result is maximum power and service per square foot of server space.
  • neweggQuad-core Processing with Enhanced Smart CacheThe Intel Xeon E5540 processor features four 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 4 x 512KB L2 cache and 8MB shared L3 cache with Enhanced Smart Cache technology minimize data latency and improves performance.

  • neweggSupports Intel Virtualization Technology (Intel VT)With Intel VT, one hardware platform functions as multiple "virtual" platforms. For business, Intel VT offers improved manageability, limiting downtime and maintaining worker productivity by isolating computing activities into separate partitions. In the home, Intel VT allows for the creation of unique user environments for different family members who are using the same platform simultaneously.

  • neweggExecute 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 of the memory where application code can execute and where it cannot. When a malicious worm attempts to insert code into the buffer, the processor disables code execution, preventing damage or worm propagation.
