Intel Unveils Dual-Core Xeon 7100 Series Processors

Intel Corporation today unveiled eight new Dual-Core Intel Xeon® 7100 series processors, previously codenamed “Tulsa,” designed for multi-processor servers. The processor family also includes lower-power, 95 watt options that reduce associated energy costs.

The Dual-Core Intel Xeon 7100 processor series offers up to twice the performance and nearly three times better performance per watt over previous Intel Xeon MP processors.

“Today’s introduction continues an historic ’summer of servers’ for Intel where we have now delivered a record 23 new processors in three market segments in less than 100 days,” said Tom Kilroy, vice president and general manager of Intel’s Digital Enterprise Group. “The Dual-Core Intel Xeon Processor 7100 series is the best choice for demanding enterprise workloads based on new world record benchmarks, significantly outperforming the industry in key areas while not compromising on the reliability and investment protection that is so critical.”
