Intel®Xeon™ Processor 5500 Series

What’s new about the Intel Xeon Processor 5500 Series (codenamed Nehalem)?

Integrated Memory Controller featuring QuickPath Interconnect (QPI)

QuickPath Technology means that each processor core features an integrated memory controller and high-

speed interconnect, linking processors and other components to deliver dynamically scalable interconnect

bandwidth, outstanding memory performance and flexibility, and tightly integrated interconnect reliability,

availability, and serviceability (RAS).

Intel® Turbo Boost Technology

Turbo Boost delivers additional performance automatically when needed by taking advantage of the processor's

power and thermal headroom. This enables increased performance of both multi-threaded and single-threaded

workloads.

Intel®Hyper-Threading Technology

Hyper-Threading allows thread-level parallelism on each processor resulting in more efficient use of processor

resources. With higher processing throughput, you enjoy substantially improved performance.

DDR3 Memory

The move to DDR3 memory offers increased performance due to higher memory speeds, and reduced power

consumption compared to FB-DDR2 memory operating at the same speed.

Improved Energy Efficiency

The new Intel microarchitecture allows for more efficient load and idle performance. Core states are managed in

response to demand in order to remain within the thermal envelope.

Memory Population Scenarios

Maximum Bandwidth:

●DDR3 1333 across 3 channels per CPU

●1 DIMMs per channel (6 DIMMs)

Balanced Performance:

●DDR3 1066 across 3 channels per CPU

●Up to 2 DIMMs per channel (12 DIMMs)

Maximum Capacity:

●DDR3 800 across 3 channels per CPU

●Up to 3 DIMMs per channel (18 DIMMs

total)

For maximum bandwidth, you want the fastest memory speed, which requires one of the Advanced CPU SKUs (X55xx). Since

1333MHz memory is only supported at up to 1 DIMM per channel, the maximum installation with 2 CPUs would be 6 DIMMs.

For maximum capacity, you want to be able to install as many DIMMs as possible. Populating 3 DIMMs per channel will result in the

memory running at a maximum of 800MHz, meaning you can choose any of the Xeon 5500 SKUs, since they all support 800MHz or

higher, and will clock down memory speed if necessary, to support 3 DIMMs per channel.

gFor systems offering 18 DIMMs, please contact your Silicon Mechanics sales representative.

Balanced vs. Unbalanced Memory Population Considerations

CPU CPU

Recommended: Balanced Memory Population

●Use a “balanced” platform configuration: populate the same number of DIMMs for each channel and each socket.

●Use identical DIMM types throughout the platform: same size, speed, and number of ranks.

Alternatives: Unbalanced Memory Population “2-1-1” (not recommended)

Balanced 1-1-1 Memory Population

CPU CPU

Option 1 Option 2

Population Scenario

●Interleave the first 3 DIMMs equally across the 3 channels

and add the 4th DIMM to the first channel.

Performance Consideration: Unpredictable Performance

●If your application uses only the first three DIMMs, your

results will be the same as in a balanced 1-1-1 memory

population scenario.

●If the 4th DIMM is used, your performance will be reduced

to the equivalent of a single channel.

Population Scenario

●Interleave across all four DIMMs equally.

Performance Consideration: Bandwidth Bottleneck

●For every memory request the application makes to channels

2 and 3, channel 1 will need to handle two requests.

●The doubled number of requests to channel 1 will result

in a bottleneck of your bandwidth.
