IBM eServer 325 Related Options
The IBM eServer 325 is a AMD Opteron system that supports internal
processing speeds of up to 2.0 GHz and processing operations to memory
and the PCI-X bus at 100 MHz. It contains an integrated, full-speed 1 MB
ECC L2 cache. This system supports SMP applications through installation
in the second processor slot of IBM eServer 325 models with like
processors.
High-Performance Server Subsystems
These servers are high-throughput, two-way SMP-capable AMD
Opteron-based network servers with excellent scalability when you add
memory and a second processor. They incorporate powerful 1.4, 1.6 or 2.0
GHz(1) AMD Opteron processors with 1 MB advanced transfer L2 cache.
Two connectors are standard on the system board to support
installation of a second processor. High-speed 333 MHz DDR SDRAM is
optimized for processor-to-memory subsystem performance. The IBM eServer
325 server uses the AMD 8131 and 8111 chipsets to maximize throughput
from processors to memory, and to a 64-bit PCI-X buses. The two
expansion slots are supported through the secondary 64-bit bus.
Note: (1) GHz and MHz denote the internal and/or external clock speed of
the microprocessor only, not application performance. Many factors
affect application performance.
