ML110 G6 and DL120 G6 servers' implementation of Hyper-Threading and Turbo Boost technologies

Page 7 highlights

The ProLiant ML110 and DL120 G6 servers are single-processor platforms which means that the Xeon 3400 Series processors used in these servers do not support the QuickPath architecture found in the Xeon 5500 Series processors. Otherwise, the Xeon 3400 processors support the same architecture found in the Xeon 5500 processors, including distributed shared memory, Intel Hyper-Threading technology, and Intel Turbo Boost technology with Intelligent Power technology. Table 1 shows the ML110 G6 and DL120 G6 servers' implementation of Hyper-Threading and Turbo Boost technologies for the various processor frequencies. All processors in the 3400 Series family are quad core, have 8 MB L3 caches, and operate at 95W. Table 1.
