Intel Xeon 5050 Processor 3.0GHz, 667MHz FSB, Dual-Core, Socket 771, Processor with Active Heatsink

The Dual-Core Intel® Xeon® Processor 5000 series are Intel dual core products for dual processor (DP) servers and workstations. The Dual-Core Intel Xeon Processor 5000 series are 64-bit server/workstation processors utilizing two physical Intel NetBurst® microarchitecture cores in one package. The Dual-Core Intel Xeon Processor 5000 series include enhancements to the Intel NetBurst microarchitecture while maintaining the tradition of compatibility with IA-32 software. Some key features include Hyper Pipelined Technology and an Execution Trace Cache. Hyper Pipelined Technology includes a multi-stage pipeline depth, allowing the processor to reach higher core frequencies. The Dual-Core Intel Xeon Processor 5000 series contain a total of 4 MB of L2 Advanced Transfer Cache, 2 MB per core. The 1066 MHz Front Side Bus (FSB) is a quad-pumped bus running off a 266 MHz system clock making 8.5 GBytes per second data transfer rates possible. The 667 MHz Front Side Bus (FSB) is a quad-pumped bus running off a 166 MHz system clock making 5.3 GBytes per second data transfer rates possible.

Features

• Intel® Dual-Core Processing
  Significant performance headroom, especially for multi-threaded applications, helps boost system utilization through virtualization and application responsiveness.
• Intel® Core™ microarchitecture
  Better performance on multiple application types and user environments at a substantially reduce power envelope.
• Majority of SKUs at 65W
  Significantly lower power (compared to previous generation) helps improve data center density and power/thermal operating costs.
• 4 MB shared L2 cache
  Increases efficiency of L2 cache-to-processor data transfers, maximizing main memory to processor bandwidth and reducing latency.
• Execute Disable Bit
  Provides enhanced virus protection when deployed with a supported operating system. The Execute Disable Bit allows memory to be marked as executable or non-executable, allowing the processor to raise an error to the operating system if malicious code attempts to run in non-executable memory, thereby preventing the code from infecting the system
• Intel® Virtualization Technology
  New processor hardware enhancements that support software-based virtualization, enabling migration of more environments - including 64-bit OSs and applications - to virtual environments.
• Intel® Extended Memory 64 Technology (Intel® EM64T)
  Flexibility for 64-bit and 32-bit applications and operating systems.
