Servers based on the new Intel Dual-Core Intel® Xeon® processor can help transform business

October 10, 2005 Intel launches its Server Dual-core processors that deliver a quantum leap in processing capacity without a comparable increase in power consumption. Dual core enables businesses to grow their computing solutions more efficiently and at reduced cost.

Intel continues its 20-year history of delivering enterprise-class performance with availability of its new dual-core processor.

The new Dual-Core Intel® Xeon® processor is based on the popular Intel® E7520 chipset and is expected to offer performance gains of up to 50%* for certain applications tested over previous single core Xeon processors tested. Servers based on the Dual-Core Intel Xeon processor can also handle 32-bit and 64-bit applications providing organizations with a solution that can help meet their evolving needs.

Learn how Intel is delivering solutions and resources, businesses need to maximize the value of migration, while reducing their associated costs and risks.

* Performance gain based on result submitted to www.spec.org on SPECint™_rate_base2000 benchmark. Baseline System Configuration: IBM eServer xSeries 346 Server platform with Two 64-bit Intel® Xeon™ processors 3.60 GHz with 2MB L2 Cache and 800 MHz system bus 8x512MB ECC PC2-3200 DIMMs for RAM and Windows 2003 Standard Edition for OS. Intel Compiler 8.1 binaries. For more information see http://www.spec.org/cpu2000/results/res2005q2/cpu2000-20050514-04113.html. New Platform Configuration: IBM eServer xSeries 346 Server platform with Two Dual-Core Intel® Xeon® processors 2.80 GHz with 2x2MB L2 Cache 800 MHz system bus, 4 GB DDR2, Microsoft Windows Server* 2003, standard Edition, Intel C/C++ Compiler 9.0 (20050624Z) for 32-bit applications, Intel Fortran Compiler 9.0 (20050624Z) for 32-bit applications, Microsoft Visual Studio .NET 13.0.9466 (for libraries) MicroQuill Smartheap Library 7.30 Submitted to www.spec.org for review as of Oct 10, 2005. For additional information on other applications tested and benchmark results see http://www.intel.com/performance/server/xeon/index.htm. Results will vary by hardware and software configuration.
