New Technology Reviews!.: 34Ghz

<P></P>The Intel Xeon X5492 is a quad-core microprocessor, with a cloak speed of 3.4 gigahertz. Intel manufactures microprocessor CPUs (central processing units) for a wide variety of machines; the Xeon series of processors is designed for <a class="StrongLink" href="http://www.ehow.com/business/">business</A> applications. This processor is best for a server CPU in a dual-processor platform.Clock SpeedThe clock speed measures the rate at which a processor operates. This is measured in cycles per second, where the processor performs one task every cycle. This processor has a clock speed of 3.4 gigahertz (or 3.4 billion cycles per second), which is a a fast speed and at the high end of the Xeon <a class="StrongLink" href="http://www.ehow.com/relationships-and-family/">family</A>. The slowest Xeon processor has a speed of 1.4 gigahertz, and the fastest has a speed of 3.66 gigahertz.Quad-CoreThis processor uses four processing cores. Most of the Xeon family use this configuration, although some use eight and a few use just a single core. Multi-core processors can behave like multiple separate processors and can therefore process multiple streams of data simultaneously.Hyper-ThreadingHyper-Threading is a technology that enables a single processing core to process two threads of data at once so that each Hyper-Threading core acts like a multi-core processor. This lets this quad-core processor run up to eight sets of calculations at any given point. This makes the system much better at using multiple applications at once.Technical SpecificationsThe Xeon X5492 uses an L2 cache of 12 megabytes and has a front-side bus speed of 1600 megahertz. The processor uses a 64-bit instruction set and has a maximum TDP (thermal design power) of 150 watts.
