Technical Product Specification
Functional Architecture Intel® Server Board S2600IP and Intel® Workstation Board W2600CR TPS
30 Intel order number G34153-004 Revision 1.4
A processor may be installed without populating the associated memory slots provided a
second processor is installed with associated memory.
In this case, the memory is
shared by the processors.
However, the platform suffers performance degradation and
latency due to the remote memory.
Processor sockets are self-contained and autonomous. However, all memory subsystem
support (such as Memory RAS, Error Management,) in the BIOS setup are applied
commonly across processor sockets.
On the Intel
®
Server Board S2600IP and Intel
®
Workstation Board W2600CR a total of 16 DIMM
slots is provided (2 CPUs – 4 Channels/CPU, 2 DIMMs/Channel). The nomenclature for DIMM
sockets is detailed in the following table.
