The Dell 338-BFFO boasts a substantial 20MB Smart Cache, enhancing its ability to quickly retrieve and store data, thereby optimizing its efficiency in handling complex computational workloads.
Socket FCLGA2011-3The processor's socket type is FCLGA2011-3, where FCLGA stands for Flip-Chip Land Grid Array. This type of socket is designed for better thermal performance and durability, ensuring efficient heat dissipation and a secure connection between the processor and the motherboard.
Architecture 22NMThe term "22NM" refers to the manufacturing process technology used to create the processor. In this case, the Dell 338-BFFO features a 22-nanometer (nm) architecture. A smaller nanometer size generally signifies a more advanced and efficient manufacturing process, contributing to improved power efficiency and overall performance.
Power Consumption 90 Watts (W)Power consumption is a critical consideration in designing processors. The Dell 338-BFFO has a power consumption of 90 Watts, indicating the amount of electrical power it requires to operate efficiently. The 90W power rating strikes a balance between performance and energy efficiency, making it suitable for various computing environments.
Quick Path Interconnect (QPI) 8GT/SThe Quick Path Interconnect (QPI) is a high-speed interface that facilitates communication between the processor and other components in a system, such as memory and peripherals. The Dell 338-BFFO features an 8GT/S (GigaTransfers per Second) QPI, ensuring swift and efficient data transfer between the processor and connected devices.
Server EnvironmentsThe Intel Xeon Octa-Core E5-2640V3 processor is well-suited for server environments, where the demand for processing power is high. Its octa-core configuration allows for parallel processing, making it capable of handling multiple tasks simultaneously. This is advantageous in scenarios such as web hosting, database management, and virtualization.
Workstation PerformanceFor workstations handling resource-intensive tasks like 3D rendering, video editing, and scientific simulations, the Dell 338-BFFO excels due to its robust architecture and ample Smart Cache. The 2.60 GHz clock speed ensures smooth execution of tasks, and the 20MB Smart Cache enhances data access speed, contributing to an overall efficient workstation performance.
High-End ComputingIn high-performance computing scenarios, such as scientific research and complex simulations, the processor's advanced features become particularly valuable. The combination of octa-core processing, high clock speed, and a generous Smart Cache makes the Dell 338-BFFO an ideal choice for applications that demand substantial computational power.
