Hi,

There is an misleading information in Intel's documentation. I looked at the document, found at http://www.intel.com/Assets/en_US/PDF/prodbrief/323501.pdf http://www.intel.com/Assets/en_US/PDF/prodbrief/323501.pdf - in the table at page 7 can be found:

Intel® Xeon® Processor X5650 / 2.66 GHz / 12 MB / 6 cores / 95 W / 5.86 GT/s / 1066, 800 MHz memory

But, on the ARK pages and in the document, found at http://www.intel.com/Assets/en_US/PDF/specupdate/323372.pdf http://www.intel.com/Assets/en_US/PDF/specupdate/323372.pdf - in the table at page 9 can be found:

SLBV3 (which is the X5650 processor) / 2.66 GHz / 12 MB / 6 cores / 95 W / 6.40 GT/s / 1333, 1066, 800 MHz memory

Which information is correct? There is clearly an error in Intel's official documentation!

Kind regards, Marko Kobal.
