IBM BLADECENTER PROCESSOR XEON 2.8GHZ 800MHZ 1MB L2 CACHE

This new Intel offering features an advanced Intel Xeon Processor and an enhanced chipset that reduces system bottlenecks by balancing performance between the processor, I/O and memory. This new offering is designed to deliver improvements in memory bandwidths, throughput speed, power consumption and overall system performance. This rich stable of technology improvements addresses the requirements of today's data-hungry software applications that crave performance, such as financial and scientific modeling to visualization and data base retrieval applications. The bottom line is this new Intel Xeon Processor platform will offer improved performance, reliability, serviceability and power savings for enterprise solutions. In order to maximize the performance gains of your IBM eServer HS20 blade server consider upgrading to a second Intel Xeon Processor. The incremental performance gains achieved by fully populating your DP processor-based blade server often outweigh the incremental costs. By fully populating your HS20 blade server, you enjoy the price/performance benefits and maximize the return on investment for a relatively small incremental cost.
