The Dell PowerEdge M620 features the Intel Xeon processor E5-2600 product family, offering an ideal combination of performance, power efficiency, and cost. These processors provide high performance no matter what your constraint is-floor space, power, or budget-and on workloads that range from the most complicated scientific exploration to crucial web-serving and infrastructure applications. In addition to providing raw performance gains, improved I/O is also made possible with Intel Integrated I/O, which can reduce latency by adding more lanes and doubling bandwidth. This helps to reduce network and storage bottlenecks, unleashing the processor's performance capabilities. The new Intel Xeon processor E5-2600 product family not only adds new features, but also improves upon many features of the predecessor Intel Xeon processor 5600 series. A summary of what's new and improved includes the following: Up to two additional cores and up to 8 MB more last level cache More memory-six more DIMMs than previous-generation of half-height blade servers with support for up to 32GB DIMMs, increasing memory capacity from 192GB (M610) or 288GB (M710HD) to 768GB (M620) Intel Integrated I/O has support for up to 80 lanes of PCIe 3.0, which can reduce latency Faster connections are provided throughout the system with support for DDR3 1600 MT/s memory and 8.0 GT/s QPI Intel DDIO allows I/O traffic to skip the main system memory and be directed straight to the processor cache, which can provide a significant reduction in latency as well as allowing memory to remain in a low-power state Intel Advanced Vector Extensions offer up to double the floating point operations per clock cycle by doubling the length of registers, which can be useful for addressing very complex problems or dealing with large-number calculations that are integral to many technical, financial, and scientific computing problems Intel Turbo Boost Technology 2.0 delivers up to double the boost than the previous-generation turbo technology Continued improvements to both Intel TXT and AES-NI help to better protect systems and data For more information on the Intel Xeon processor E5-2600 product family, visit Intel.com.
