Keep your cool
Built using Intel’s state-of-the-art 65nm process technology, the Xeon is designed to deliver high performance at lower power consumption. With the 2.0 and 2.66GHz processors running at 65W per socket and the 3.0GHz running at 80W per socket, the dual-core Intel Xeon provides nearly four times the performance-per-watt versus the Xserve G5. The new dual-core Xeon processors in the Xserve are more than three times more efficient over last year’s Intel Xeon processors and are twice as efficient as the AMD Opteron 285. When you crunch the numbers, you’ll find exceptional performance-per-watt that will will have a tremendous impact to your power and HVAC bills.
