In response to: "My mother board is D945GNT with LGA775 prcessor socket. Can I use a Quad-core LGA775 processor for my mother board?"

Dear Guest,

D945GNT board does not support Intel Quad-Core processors.

Processor families supported by D945GNT motherboard are:

• Intel® Pentium® D Processor

• Intel® Pentium® 4 Processor

• Intel® Celeron® D Processor

Here is a list of supported processors for D945GNT.

Heloo

I have e very big problem with my server board S5000VSA

I have both 2 new processor Quad Xeon E5410 but i can not get them start because i have a fatal error on bios "19A proccesor mismatch voltage"

Please help me to solve my problem

I have the latest bios

Bios 88

In response to:

"I have a server with 4 CPUs (dual core Xeon 3Ghz) Can I add another CPU? in general, do you know any server module what would support more than 4CPUs? thanks."

Dear Guest,

When talking about Channel products, you can go upto 7000 series MP Xeon based systems namely S7000FC4UR or S7000FC4URE where you can have upto 4 Quad Core Xeon 7200 & 7300 series processors in one server. Now if you want to go beyond 4 CPUs in one system, I'd like to dig more into this and it would be more appropriate if you could open up a new thread stating your exact requirement as to why you need this so that we can better address your needs according to your requirements since if your requirement is extreme power, perhaps we can recommend something better.

In response to:

"PLease, what is the difference from ViiV and vPro technologies? A vPro processor has a Viiv too? They are exclusive?"

Dear Guest,

Viiv is a platform initiative from Intel similar to Intel's Centrino and vPro. Initially (through release 1.7) was a collection of computer technologies with a particular combination of Intel ingredients to support a "media PC" concept. Intel also provided the Media Server as the core software stack on the PC to support "media" distribution through the home while vPro is a platform name that refers to a set of motherboard technology and features that is targeted for digital office/enterprise customers.

Now for the processors, Viiv must feature one of the following dual-core or quad-core processors:

Intel Pentium D / Pentium Extreme Edition / Core Duo / Core 2 Duo / Core 2 Extreme / Core 2 Quad and

following chipsets:

Intel 975X Express, 955X Express, 945G Express, 945P Express, 945GT Express, P965 Express, G965 Express or Mobile Intel 945GM Express Chipset

Whereas vPro has three main elements:

1) Core 2 Duo/Quad or Centrino 2 processor for business applications.

2) Integrated components (such as 64-bit graphics) to reduce the number of discrete components in the system.

3) Hardware-based management and security technology (such as Intel AMT).

vPro requires specific chipsets: Q963/Q965/Q33/Q35/Q43/Q45, which support Intel's AMT (Active Management Technology).

Now you must be a bit confused that since vPro and Viiv both require Core 2 processors, what could be the significant difference? Including all the above differences, you must remember that the Core 2 processors required for vPro must support Intel Virtualization Technology (IVT).

Hope this helps, if you still have any doubts, feel free to contact us.

I would like to get the detailled cache specification for the intel Xeon 5410 (quad-core) processor.

Indeed, I found conflicting statements in the datasheet (http://download.intel.com/design/xeon/datashts/318589.pdf),

- page 9: "Some key features include on-die, primary 32-kB instruction cache and 32-kB write-back data cache in each core and 12 MB (2 x 6MB) Level 2 cache"

- table 1-1, page 10: "L1: 32KB per die (16KB per core) instruction, 32KB per die (16KB per core) data ; L2: 2x6 MB shared"

My assumption is that each core has :

- a 32kB, private L1 instruction cache

- a 32kB, private L1 data cache

- a 6 MB unified L2 cache shared with another core (cores 0 & 1 share a cache and core 2 & 3 share another cache)

Is this correct ?

Many thanks in advance for your reply.
