Six Core Processing: Runs 6 independent processor cores in one physical package


Base Processor Frequency: 3.30 GHz


Massive PCI Express Bandwidth: 40 lanes of PCIe supported through the processor


Intel Turbo Boost Technology: Dynamically increases the processor frequency up to 


3.90GHz when applications demand more performance. Speed when you need it, energy 


efficiency when you don’t.


Intel Hyper-Threading Technology: 12 threads provide unprecedented processing 


capability for better multi-tasking and threaded applications. Do more with less wait 


time. 


Intel Smart Cache: Up to 15MB of shared cached allows faster access to your data by 


enabling dynamic and efficient allocation of the cache to match the needs of each core 


significantly reducing latency to frequently used data and improving performance.


Overclocking Enabled: Core (Turbo) and DDR3 ratios are unlocked for ease of 


overclocking


Integrated Memory Controller: Supports 4 channels of DDR3-1600 memory with 1 DIMM per 


channel. Support for XMP memory. See this site for certified XMP memory
