Cisco UCS B420 M3 Blade Server

CONFIGURING the SERVER

STEP 2 CHOOSE CPU(S)

The standard CPU features are:

■ Intel Xeon processor E5-4600 series CPUs

■ Core counts of 4, 6, or 8

■ Cache sizes of 10, 12, 15, 16, or 20 MB

Select CPUs

The supported Intel Xeon E5-4600 series CPUs on the UCS B420 M3 are listed in Table 3.

Supported Configurations

(1) Two-CPU Configuration

■ Choose two identical CPUs from any one of the rows of Table 3. CPUs 1 and 2 will be

populated.

(2) Four-CPU Configuration

■ Choose four identical CPUs from any one of the rows of Table 3.

Notes

■ The system will run at the lowest CPU or DIMM clock speed. For example, when using

1600-MHz DIMMs with an E5-4603 CPU (which can only support up to 1066-MHz DIMMs), the

system will run at the lower speed of 1066 MHz.

■ System speed is also dependent on how many DIMMs are populated per channel.

■ For 2-CPU systems, only 24 DIMM slots are functional (channels A - H). See Table 9 on page

17 for supported adapter combinations in 2-CPU systems.

■ For 4-CPU systems, all 48 DIMM slots are functional.
