system is able to transition between voltage and frequency states more often,

providing improved power/performance balance.

 Clock Partitioning and Recovery. The bus clock continues running during state

transition, even when the core clock and Phase-Locked Loop are stopped, which allows

logic to remain active. The core clock is also able to restart more quickly under

Enhanced Intel SpeedStep

Technology.

Advanced Vector Extensions 2 (Intel

AVX2)

Intel

Advanced Vector Extensions 2.0 (Intel

AVX2) is the latest expansion of the Intel

instruction set. Intel

AVX2 extends the Intel

Advanced Vector Extensions (Intel

AVX) with

256-bit integer instructions, floating-point fused multiply add (FMA) instructions and gather

operations. The 256-bit integer vectors benefit math, codec, image and digital signal

processing software. FMA improves performance in face detection, professional imaging, and

high performance computing. Gather operations increase vectorization opportunities for many

applications. In addition to the vector extensions, this generation of Intel processors adds new

bit manipulation instructions useful in compression, encryption, and general purpose software.

Node Manager 3.0

Intel

Node Manager 3.0 enables the PTAS-CUPS (Power Thermal Aware Scheduling –

Compute Usage Per Second) feature of the Intel

Server Platform Services 3.0 Intel

ME FW.

This is in essence a grouping of separate platform functionalities that provide Power, Thermal,

and Utilization data that together offer an accurate, real time characterization of server

workload. These functionalities include the following:

 Computation of Volumetric Airflow

 New synthesized Outlet Temperature sensor

 CPU, memory, and I/O utilization data (CUPS)

This PTASCUPS data, can then be used in conjunction with the Intel

Server Platform Services

3.0 Intel

Node Manager power monitoring/controls and a remote management application

(such as the Intel

Data Center Manager [Intel

DCM]) to create a dynamic, automated,

closed-loop data center management and monitoring system.

3.2.11 Intel

Secure Key

The Intel

64 and IA-32 Architectures instruction RDRAND and its underlying Digital Random

Number Generator (DRNG) hardware implementation. Among other things, the Digital Random

Number Generator (DRNG) using the RDRAND instruction is useful for generating high-quality

keys for cryptographic protocols.

3.2.12 Intel

OS Guard

Protects the operating system (OS) from applications that have been tampered with or hacked

by preventing an attack from being executed from application memory. Intel

OS Guard also

protects the OS from malware by blocking application access to critical OS vectors.
