Standard, Enterprise Servers: Intel® 5520 and 5500 Chipset
Server and workstation platforms based on the Intel® 5520 and 5500 
Chipset, combined with the Intel Xeon processor 5600 series, drive 
breakthrough performance and state-of-the-art technology to perfor-
mance and mainstream server platforms.
The Intel 5520 Chipset supports the Intel Xeon processor 5600 series 
at 6.4 GT/s, 5.86 GT/s and 4.8 GT/s speeds via the Intel QuickPath 
Interconnect. Additionally, this chipset delivers support for 36 lanes of 
PCI Express 2.0 I/O, Intel VT-c and Intel VT-d enhancements for virtual-
ization OS, Intel® Dynamic Power Node Manager system management, 
and support for Intel® ICH10, ICH10R and Intel® 6700PXH 64-bit PCI Hub.
The Intel 5500 Chipset supports the Intel Xeon processor 5500 series 
at 6.4 GT/s, 5.86 GT/s and 4.8 GT/s speeds via the Intel QuickPath 
Interconnect. Additionally, this chipset delivers support for 24 lanes of 
PCI Express 2.0 I/O, Intel VT-c and Intel VT-d enhancements for virtual-
ization OS, Intel Dynamic Power Node Manager system management, 
and support for Intel ICH10, ICH10R and Intel 6700PXH 64-bit PCI Hub.
Workstations: Intel 5520 Chipset in Single  
or Dual I/O Hub (IOH) Configuration
The Intel 5520 chipset improves data movement across Intel Xeon 
processor 5500 series-based workstations and HPC systems by 
increasing interconnect bandwidth, optimizing system bandwidth, 
increasing memory capacity, and improving network traffic processing 
while reducing I/O latency. 
These platform advancements help to match the improved perfor-
mance of the Intel Xeon processor 5600 series and include:
• Point-to-point connections via the Intel QuickPath Interconnect at 
4.8, 5.86 and 6.4 GT/s speeds
• Dual IOH configuration for higher I/O connectivity, up to 72 lanes for 
PCI Express 2.0
• Multiple x16 or x8 PCI Express 2.0 graphics card support
• Intel VT-c and Intel VT-d virtualization technology enhancements
• Intel Dynamic Power Node Manager system management support
• Intel ICH10 and ICH10R 
• Intel 6700PXH 64-bit PCI Hub
