Intel BX80602E5504 Xeon E5504 2.00GHz 4MB Cache
LGA 1366 Quad-Core Server Processor

Dramatically advance the efficiency of IT infrastructure
and provide unmatched business capabilities
For performance that adapts to your application demands, intelligently scales
energy use per performance demands, and offers best-in-class virtualization,
turn to a more intelligent enterprise server processor - the Intel Xeon
processor 5500 series-automatically and intelligently adjusting server
performance according to your application needs.
features
The Intel Xeon processor 5500 series brings together a number of innovative
technologies to deliver intelligent performance. Three new features are listed
below:
• Intel® Turbo Boost Technology
- increases performance by increasing processor frequency, enabling
faster speeds as conditions allow.
Intel Turbo Boost Technology delivers performance when and where it’s needed
by adapting processor frequency to application needs, scaling performance to
meet peak performance demands. Intel Turbo Boost Technology allows specific
cores within each processor to operate above rated frequency within a set range,
increasing frequency when needed to increase execution speed.

• Intel® Hyper-Threading Technology (Intel® HT)
- lets today’s well-threaded applications make the most of every
clock cycle.
Many types of applications lend themselves to parallel, multithreaded
execution. Intel Hyper-Threading Technology enables simultaneous multi-threading
within each processor core, up to two threads per core or eight threads on a
quad-core processor. Hyper threading reduces computational latency, making
optimal use of every clock cycle. For example, while one thread is waiting for a
result or event, another thread is executing in that core, to minimize down
cycles.

• Intel® QuickPath Technology
- and an integrated memory controller speed traffic between
processors and I/O controllers for bandwidth-intensive applications, to deliver
as much as 25.6 GB/s, up to 3.5x the bandwidth of previous-generation
rocessors.
To achieve top application performance, you need optimal processing speed
plus enough data bandwidth to keep each CPU running at capacity. To deliver top
performance for bandwidth-intensive applications, the Intel Xeon processor 5500
series features new Intel QuickPath Technology. This new scalable, shared memory
architecture delivers memory bandwidth leadership and up to 3.5x the bandwidth
of previous-generation processors by connecting processors and other components
with a new high-speed interconnect. Intel QuickPath Technology is designed to
unleash the full performance of the Intel® Microarchitecture Nehalem and future
generations of Intel multi-core processors.
