AMAX now offers our customers the exclusive opportunity to test drive an upcoming breakthrough on the future IntelŽ XeonŽ processor E5 family high-performance platform, prior to its official Q2/2012 launch. Under this program, qualified customers can remotely access an in-house future IntelŽ XeonŽ processor E5 family based solution which features four nodes in a single high-density form factor powered by eight future IntelŽ XeonŽ processor E5 family processors, and experience first-hand the computing revolution of the future IntelŽ XeonŽ processor E5 family architecture.
Future IntelŽ XeonŽ processor E5 family based solution feature highlights include:
- The worlds first server processor to support full integration of the PCI Express 3.0 specification. PCIe 3.0 is estimated to double the interconnect bandwidth over the PCIe 2.0 specification while enabling lower power and higher density server implementations. New fabric controllers taking advantage of the PCI Express 3.0 specification will allow more efficient scaling of performance and data transfer with the growing number of nodes in HPC supercomputers.
- Delivers up to 2.1 times more performance in raw FLOPS (Floating Point Operations Per Second as measured by Linpack) and up to 70% more performance using real-HPC workloads compared to the previous generation of Intel Xeon 5600 series processors.
Feature highlights for AMAXs future IntelŽ XeonŽ processor E5 family remote testing platform include:
- Support for eight Dual Socket Enterprise class future IntelŽ XeonŽ processor E5 family platform in a 2U Chassis
- Four hot-pluggable dual future IntelŽ XeonŽ processor E5 family based nodes
- Performance 8 channel memory at 1600 MHz for maximum memory bandwidth
- Supports 56 PCIe Gen3 I/O Lanes in a 2U chassis
- Support for Intel® Remote Management Module 4 Lite solutions
- Intel® Light-Guided Diagnostics on field replaceable units
- Support for Intel® System Management software
- Support for Intel® Intelligent Power Node Manager
AMAXs future IntelŽ XeonŽ processor E5 family platforms will be available for purchase beginning March 2012.
