NF149AA - HP 2.40GHz 5.86GT/s QPI 8MB L3 Cache Socket LGA1366 Intel Xeon E5530 Quad-Core Processor

Intel's latest-generation microarchitecture represents the next step in unprecedented processor performance and dynamic scalability. Designed from the ground up to take advantage of hafnium-based Intel?? 45nm hi-k metal gate silicon technology, Intel?? Microarchitecture (Nehalem) unleashes parallel processing performance enabled by Intel?? QuickPath technology providing an integrated memory controller and high-speed interconnect per independent processing core.

- Dynamic scalability, managed cores, threads, cache, interfaces, and power for energy-efficient performance on demand.
- Design and performance scalability for servers, workstations, notebooks and desktops with support for 2-8+ cores and up to 16+ threads with Intel?? Hyper-Threading Technology (Intel?? HT Technology), and scalable cache sizes, system interconnects, and integrated memory controllers.
- Intel?? Turbo Boost Technology delivers additional performance automatically when needed by taking advantage of the processor's power and thermal headroom. This enables increased performance of both multi-threaded and single-threaded workloads.
- Intel Hyper-Threading Technology brings high-performance applications into mainstream computing with 1-16+ threads optimized for a new generation multi-core processor architecture.
- Scalable shared memory of Intel?? QuickPath technology features memory distributed to each processor with integrated memory controllers and high-speed point-to-point interconnects to unleash the performance of future versions of next-generation Intel?? multi-core processors.
- Multi-level shared cache improves performance and efficiency by reducing latency to frequently used data.
