Product Brief Intel® Xeon® Processor 7300 Series Quad-Core Intel® Xeon® Processor 7300 Series Maximize Performance and Scalability in Multi-Processor Platforms Built for Virtualization and Data Demanding Applications Intel offers the industry’s first quad-core processors in volume production for multiprocessor server platforms, enabling scalable performance and proven reliability for data demanding enterprise applications and server consolidation in virtualized environments.
The Capacity, Reliability, and Flexibility You Need for Virtualization Multi-processor platforms based on the Quad-Core Intel® Xeon® processor 7300 series and the Intel® Core™ microarchitecture enable IT managers to maximize data center performance and density. On a four socket platform, with up to 16 threads, 32- and 64-bit processing capabilities, and with up to 8 MB of L2 cache per processor,2 you can consolidate your data center onto fewer systems.
Performance for Your Demanding Enterprise Applications Quad-Core Intel Xeon processor 7300 series-based platforms can help drive your data- and transactionintensive applications faster. This allows your business to know more, know it faster, and respond more quickly. With tremendous 64-bit performance and the broadest 32-bit application support, your data center can become more efficient and responsive to business needs.
