Six-Core Intel® Xeon® Processor X5680
In many organizations, IT infrastructure has begun to constrain business efficiency and growth. For the past decade, IT has rapidly added low-cost hardware to accommodate business growth. But with data centers now stretched to capacity in terms of power, cooling, and floor space, infrastructure is actually limiting IT from investing in innovation. The Intel® Xeon® processor 5600 series helps IT meet the performance, power, and innovation needs of the data center by delivering a new generation of processors built on 32nm technology that can automatically regulate power consumption, and intelligently adjusts server performance according to your application needs.

|
| Automated energy efficiency |
- Get 45 percent more performanceλ than previous generations without increasing power consumption with servers based on next-generation 32nm process technology.
|
| Integrated power gates |
- Allow idling cores to be reduced to near-zero power, independent of other cores, reducing server idle power consumption.
|
| Automated low-power states |
- Automatically put processor, memory, and I/O controller into the lowest available power states that will meet the current workload while minimizing performance impact.
|
| Flexible virtualization |
- Combine servers from multiple generations into the same virtualized server pool to extend failover, load balancing, and disaster recovery capability.
|
| Intel® Virtualization TechnologyΛ (Intel® VT) |
- Enables more operating systems and software to run in today’s virtual environments.
- Developed with virtualization software providers to enable greater functionality and compatibility compared to non-hardware-assisted virtual environments.
- Get the performance and headroom to improve the average virtualization performance over previous generations of two-processor servers.

Provides enhanced virtualization security through hardware-based resistance to malicious software attacks at launch |
¹ Hyper-Threading Technology requires a computer system with an Intel® Pentium® 4 processor or Intel® Core™ i7 processor supporting HT Technology and a Hyper-Threading Technology enabled chipset, BIOS and operating system. Performance will vary depending on the specific hardware and software you use. See http://www.intel.com/info/hyperthreading/ for more information including details on which processors support HT Technology.
² Intel® EM64T requires a computer system with a processor, chipset, BIOS, operating system, device drivers and applications enabled for Intel EM64T. Processor will not operate (including 32-bit operation) without an Intel EM64T-enabled BIOS. Performance will vary depending on your hardware and software configurations. See http://www.intel.com/info/em64t for more information including details on which processors support Intel® EM64T or consult with your system vendor for more information.
