Xi® MTower™ 64
Based on the newest and most revolutionary, 64 bit AMD Opteron™ processor, sporting 16x16 HyperTransport™ interface with 1MB (1024KB) multi-way associative L2 Cache & independent integrated DDR 333MHz RAM Controller. The motherboard, based on the NVIDIA® nForce™ 3 Professional chipset, allows FSB data transfer much faster than previous BUS technologies (>5.8GB/sec.). Expandable to 8GB of 333MHz DDR-SDRAM dual channel memory BUS, the Xi® MTower™ 64 offers the highest level of computing power available today in a standard workstation. On board RAID, 1394 Firewire, 1GBit (10/100/1000) Ethernet network interfaces, and a wide choice of powerful video boards like the NVIDIA Quadro™ FX 2000, make this unit the ideal choice for the most demanding CAD, CAE, CAM, GIS, Video Editing and engineering computational tasks. Fully tested and supported for x86 32-Bit LINUX® & Windows® Operating Systems, the Xi MTower 64 will assure a growing longevity path to new 64-Bit OS and application software, for years to come.
