The official marketing text of Intel Xeon E5540 processor 2.53 GHz 8 MB Smart Cache as supplied by the manufacturer

Performance. Efficiency. Agility.
Intel’s newest dual-core processor for dual processor (DP) servers and workstations delivers a new level of energy-efficient performance from the innovative Intel® Core™ microarchitecture, optimized for low-power, dual-core, 64-bit computing.

The Dual-Core Intel Xeon processor 5100 series is ideal for intense computing environments, 32-bit and 64-bit business-critical applications and high-end workstations. Combined with the Intel® 5000 chipset family and Fully Buffered DIMM (FBDIMM) technology, the new Dual-Core Intel Xeon processor 5100 series-based platforms are expected to deliver up to 3 times the performance and 3.5 times the performance/watt of previous-generation single-core Intel® Xeon® processors. The new Dual-Core Intel Xeon processor 5100 series-based platforms are expected to deliver up to 2.25 times the performance and 2.35 times the performance/watt of previous-generation dual-core Intel Xeon processors.

The Dual-Core Intel Xeon processor 5100 series is compatible with Intel® 5000P, 5000V and 5000X series of chipsets. Server boards based on these chipsets are optimized for dual core with advanced platform features of Dual Independent Bus and Fully Buffered DIMM memory technology offering up to 4X and 3X available bandwidth of current generation platforms. Improved I/O performance is possible with PCI Express* and the option of Intel I/O Acceleration Technology.

Dual-core processing
Significant performance headroom, especially for multi-threaded applications, helps boost system utilization through virtualization and application responsiveness.

Intel® Core™ microarchitecture
Better performance on multiple application types and user environments at a substantially reduce power envelope.

Majority of SKUs at 65W
Significantly lower power (compared to previous generation) helps improve data center density and power/thermal operating costs.

Ultra-dense, ultra low-power SKUs at 40W
Low-voltage SKU available at reduced power envelopes will deliver even higher performance per watt — helps reduce power/thermal operating costs and improve data center density.

4 MB shared L2 cache
Increases efficiency of L2 cache-to-processor data transfers, maximizing main memory to processor bandwidth and reducing latency.
Entire L2 cache can be allocated to one core.

1066 and 1333 MHz system bus
Faster system bus speeds than previous generations for increased throughput.

Intel® Virtualization Technology
New processor hardware enhancements that support software-based virtualization, enabling migration of more environments — including 64-bit OSs and applications — to virtual environments.

Intel® Extended Memory 64 Technology (Intel® EM64T)
Flexibility for 64-bit and 32-bit applications and operating systems.

Enhanced Intel® Speedstep™ Technology
Helps reduce average system power consumption and potentially improves system acoustics.

Family Xeon E5520 Xeon E5530 Benchmarks Intel Xeon E5540 Gaming speed Performance in games and similar applications, based on our tests. The performance of 4 cores, if any, and performance per core has the greatest impact on the result, since most games do not fully use more than 4 cores. The speed of caches and working with RAM is also important. Speed ​​in office use Performance in everyday work such as browsers and office applications. The performance of 1 core has the greatest impact on the result, since most of these applications use only one, ignoring the rest. Similarly, many professional applications such as various CADs ignore multi-threaded performance. Speed ​​in heavy applications Performance in resource-intensive tasks loading a maximum of 8 cores. The performance of all cores and their number have the greatest impact on the result, since most of these applications willingly use all the cores and increase the speed accordingly. At the same time, certain periods of work can be demanding on the performance of one or two cores, for example, applying filters in the editor. Data obtained from tests by users who tested their systems with and without overclocking. Thus, you see the average values ​​corresponding to the processor.

A system with few fast cores and low memory latency will be fine for the vast majority of games, but will be inferior to a system with a lot of slow cores in a rendering scenario. We believe that a minimum of 4/4 (4 physical cores and 4 threads) processor is suitable for a budget gaming PC. At the same time, some games can load it at 100%, slow down and freeze, and performing any tasks in the background will lead to a drop in FPS. Ideally, the budget shopper should aim for a minimum of 4/8 and 6/6. A gamer with a big budget can choose between 6/12, 8/8 and 8/16. Processors with 10 and 12 cores can perform well in games with high frequency and fast memory, but are overkill for such tasks. Also, buying for the future is a dubious undertaking, since in a few years many slow cores may not provide sufficient gaming performance. When choosing a processor for your work, consider how many cores your programs use. For example, photo and video editors can use 1-2 cores when working with filtering, and rendering or converting in the same editors already uses all threads. Data obtained from tests by users who tested their systems both with overclocking (maximum value in the table) and without (minimum). A typical result is shown in the middle, the more filled in the color bar, the better the average result among all tested systems. Benchmarks Benchmarks were run on stock hardware, that is, without overclocking and with factory settings. Therefore, on overclocked systems, the points can noticeably differ upwards. Also, small performance changes may be due to the BIOS version.
