Intel Xeon Processor 5100 Series Overview 

Dual processor servers and workstations based on the Dual-Core Intel Xeon processor 5100 series deliver

energy-efficient performance, reliability, versatility, and low ownership costs at a variety of price-points.  

Features

Benefits

Dual-core processing

• Significant performance headroom, especially for multi-threaded applications, helps boost 

system utilization through virtualization and application responsiveness.

Intel® Core™ microarchitecture

• Better performance on multiple application types and user environments at a substantially 

reduce power envelope.

Majority of SKUs at 65W

• Significantly lower power (compared to previous generation) helps improve data center 

density and power/thermal operating costs.

Ultra-dense, ultra low-power SKUs at 40W

• Low-voltage SKU available at reduced power envelopes will deliver even higher performance

per watt — helps reduce power/thermal operating costs and improve data center density.

4 MB shared L2 cache 

• Increases efficiency of L2 cache-to-processor data transfers, maximizing main memory 

to processor bandwidth and reducing latency. 

• Entire L2 cache can be allocated to one core.

1066 and 1333

5

MHz system bus

• Faster system bus speeds than previous generations for increased throughput.

Intel® Virtualization Technology

3

• New processor hardware enhancements that support software-based virtualization, 

enabling migration of more environments — including 64-bit OSs and applications — 

to virtual environments.

Intel® Extended Memory 64 Technology (Intel® EM64T)

6

• Flexibility for 64-bit and 32-bit applications and operating systems.

Demand-Based Switching (DBS) with 

• Helps reduce average system power consumption and potentially improves system acoustics.

Enhanced Intel SpeedStep® technology
