Dell PowerEdge M620 Technical Manual

4 Processors

The Dell PowerEdge M620 blade server features the exceptional performance, value and power
efficiency of the Intel Xeon processor E5-2600v2 product family. With up to 12 cores and 30MB
cache, E5-2600v2 processors have the capacity to deliver performance gains of up to 40% over
previous-generation E5-2600 processors. No matter your constraint — floor space, power or
budget — E5-2600v2 processors can help you achieve more computational horsepower, in the
same footprint, with better security and power efficiency.

Processor features

The Intel Xeon processor E5-2600v2 product family has powerful new features and improves upon
many of the capabilities of the predecessor Intel Xeon processor E5-2600 series:
With up to four additional cores, 10MB more cache, and a 17% increase in memory speeds,
E5-2600v2 processors may boost performance by up to 40% in Dell PowerEdge server platforms.
Support for DDR3 1866MT/s memory provides faster connections throughout the system.
Up to 24 DIMM slots and support for up to 32GB DIMMs enable memory capacity of 768GB
Dell's exclusive Fault Resilient Memory technology provides a protected memory zone for a
hypervisor without consuming half of the total RAM in the system.
In combination with Fault Resilient Memory, E5-2600v2 processors offer Failsafe Virtualization
for unsurpassed industry protection for virtual machines.
Intel Secure Key and Intel OS Guard deliver faster and more secure encryption.
Advanced Programmable Interrupt Controller virtualization (APICv) improves virtualization
performance by reducing virtual machine (VM) exits, thereby reducing overhead required to
service every APIC interrupt.
Intel Integrated PCI Express 3.0 provides up to 40 lanes per socket.
Intel Turbo Boost Technology 2.0 delivers up to double the boost of the previous generation
turbo technology.
Intel Data Direct I/O (DDIO) allows I/O traffic to skip the main system memory and be directed
straight to the processor cache, which can provide a significant reduction in latency as well as
allowing memory to remain in a low-power state.
Intel Advanced Vector Extensions offer up to double the floating point operations per clock
cycle by doubling the length of registers, which can be useful in the large-number calculations
that are integral to many technical, financial and scientific computing problems.
Dell Processor Acceleration Technology (DPAT), enabled through the BIOS, minimizes transition
duration when the processor functions in turbo mode, thereby decreasing jitter and allowing for
lesser latency.
