Architecture

To ensure proper function of the X6 server, the system should be configured correctly at the
time of purchase. The block diagram of the system in Figure 3 shows that proper memory and
I/O placement is critical for optimal performance. With the move to the Intel Ivy Bridge
processors in the X6 platform, the I/O is now directly attached to the processors. Additionally,
memory population rules have become more complex because each channel now has three
DIMMs and different memory modes.
There are a few general preferred practices in regards to configuring the system. Memory
should be installed in quantities of eight DIMMs per CPU for optimal performance and to
avoid any potential issues with memory installation order interfering with the memory mode
chosen. For best I/O performance, install the correct amount of adapters so that as many
processors as possible have a direct connection to I/O.
