What can I expect with the new processors?
• Intel® Xeon® processors are purposely built for workstations and servers. They support Error Checking and
Correcting (ECC) memory logic, and are the logical choice for environments where professionals need the performance
toworkecientlyandaccuratelybyavoidingdatacorruptionand/orcomputercrashes.Thisprocessorseries
provides PCI Express connections directly from the processor. The processor series also provides dual QuickPath
Interconnects (QPI) between processors increasing the processor-to-processor communication speeds for dual
processor systems. The Intel® Xeon® Processor E5-2600 v3
1
Product Family supports the following features:
• 40 lanes of PCIe Gen 3 I/O (for each processor)
• For the HP Z840, the 1st processor will provide two PCIe3 x16 slots and one PCIe3 x4 slot. The 2nd HP Z840
processor will provide one PCIe3 x16 slot and two PCIe3 x8 slots
• Intel® Turbo
7
Mode (allows processor to run faster under certain conditions)
• Intel® Hyper-Threading Technology
8
• 22nm Silicon Process Technology
• From 15 MB to 45 MB of processor cache. The size of the processor cache is dependent on processor model.
• 6.4GT/s, 8.0GT/s and 9.6GT/s QPI links
• The speed of the QPI is dependent on processor frequency.
• 80W, 90W, 105W, 120W, 135W, 145W and 160W parts
• Integrated DDR4 memory controller
• 4 channel 2133 MHz DDR4 memory subsystem
• Memory frequency is dependent on processor frequency.
• 512 GB memory capacity at launch. (Enabled for up to 2 TB with two processors.)
