INTEL XEON PROCESSOR

The Intel Xeon processor E5-1600/E5-2600/E5-4600 product families are the next generation of 64-bit, multi-core enterprise processors built on 32-nanometer process technology. Based on the low-power/high performance 2nd Generation Intel Core Processor Family microarchitecture, the processor is designed for a two chip platform consisting of a processor and a Platform Controller Hub (PCH) enabling higher performance, easier validation, and improved x-y footprint. The Intel Xeon processor E5-1600 product family and the Intel Xeon processor E5-2600 product family are designed for Efficient Performance server, workstation and HPC platforms. The Intel Xeon processor E5-4600 product family processor supports scalable server and HPC platforms of two or more processors, including “glueless” 4-way platforms.

• Up to 8 execution cores
• Each core supports two threads (Intel® Hyper-Threading Technology), up to 16 threads per socket
• 46-bit physical addressing and 48-bit virtual addressing
• 1 GB large page support for server applications
• A 32-KB instruction and 32-KB data first-level cache (L1) for each core
• A 256-KB shared instruction/data mid-level (L2) cache for each core
• Up to 20 MB last level cache (LLC): up to 2.5 MB per core instruction/data last level cache (LLC), shared among all cores
• The Intel® Xeon® processor E5-4600 product family supports Directory Mode, Route Through, and Node IDs to reduce unnecessary Intel QuickPath Interconnect traffic by tracking cache lines present in remote sockets.
