Dual- And Quad-Core Processors - HP Xw6600 - Workstation - 2 GB RAM Technical Reference Manual

STAR qualified per the applicable ENERGY STAR guidelines for energy efficiency. The following logo
appears on ENERGY STAR qualified computers.
Figure 1-7
The ENERGY STAR Computers Program was created by the EPA to promote energy efficiency and
reduce air pollution through more energy-efficient equipment in homes, offices, and factories. One way
products achieve this energy efficiency is by reducing power consumption when not being used through
the Microsoft Windows Power Management feature.
The Power Management feature enables the workstation to enter a low-power (or "sleep") mode after
inactivity. When used with an external monitor that is ENERGY STAR compliant, this feature also
supports the monitor's similar power management features.
To take advantage of this energy savings:
●
The Power Management feature has been preset to power down the computer after 30 minutes of
inactivity.
●
The Power Management feature has been preset to power down the monitor after 15 minutes of
inactivity.
Both the computer and monitor can be activated from sleep mode through computer input devices
(mouse, keyboard, and so on). When configured with wake on LAN (WOL) enabled, the workstation can
also be activated by a network signal.
For more information about the energy and financial savings potential of the Power Management
Feature, see the EPA ENERGY STAR Power Management Web site :

CAUTION:
compliant can cause video distortion when an Energy Save timeout occurs.
NOTE: ENERGY STAR is not supported on Linux workstations.
If it is necessary to restore the operating system, you must reset the power management settings (if
applicable) after the restore.
To verify the factory default power settings for your workstation, select Start>Control Panel and double-
click Power Options.

Dual- and quad-core processors

The HP xw6600 Workstation supports dual- and quad-core processors that provide two or four true
processors (processor cores) in a single socket. Dual- and quad-core processors are better at handling
the load of multithreaded applications (such as rendering images in Digital Content Creation) and highly
multitasked environments (such as running several productivity applications while listening to music).
