The Dell™ PowerEdge™ R620 features the Intel
offers an ideal combination of performance, power efficiency, and cost. These processors provide
high performance no matter what your constraint is—floor space, power, or budget—and on
workloads that range from the most complicated scientific exploration to crucial web-serving and
infrastructure applications. In addition to providing raw performance gains, improved I/O is also
made possible with Intel Integrated I/O, which can reduce latency by adding more lanes and
doubling bandwidth. This helps to reduce network and storage bottlenecks, unleashing the
processor's performance capabilities.
The new Intel Xeon processor E5-2600 product family not only adds new features, but also
improves upon many features of the predecessor Intel Xeon processor 5600 series, including:

Up to two additional cores and up to 8MB more last level cache

More memory—six additional DIMMs and support for up to 32GB DIMMs, which increases
memory capacity from 288GB to 768GB

Intel Integrated I/O has support for up to 80 lanes of PCIe 3.0, which can reduce latency

Faster connections are provided throughout the system with support for DDR3 1600MT/s
memory and 8.0 GT/s QPI

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 for addressing very complex problems or
dealing with large-number calculations, which are integral to many technical, financial, and
scientific computing problems

Intel Turbo Boost Technology 2.0 delivers up to double the boost than the
previous-generation turbo technology

Continued improvements to both Intel TXT and AES-NI help to better protect systems and data
