50W Quad-Core: How would you use them?

Posted by C_Peters Mar 25, 2008

Today, Intel launched 50W low power versions of the 45nm Quad-Core Xeon processors (the L5400 series).
The 2 new SKUs are listed below:

Quad-Core Xeon L5420 2.50 GHz, 12MB L2, 1333MHz
Quad-Core Xeon L5410 2.33 GHz, 12MB L2, 1333MHz

These products offer IT and business users 2 primary benefits:

45nm 50W quad-core brings 25% improved performance over previous generation 65nm 50W quad-core processors
They also run 30W cooler than mainstream 80W quad-core processors delivering the same performance at the same frequency.

We have seen strong interest for these 50W quad-core products and I'd like to hear from you on where you would use low power quad-core and why?
