Intel’s Most Efficient Processor Line Now Featured in Rackable Systems’ Low Wattage Servers: Rackable Systems today announced the adoption of the newest Intel Xeon processor series into its broad family of energy-efficient servers, available within 30 days. The new low wattage processors draw a mere 50 watts of power, enabling even greater performance per watt per square foot when paired with Rackable Systems’ award-winning servers and storage systems. Rackable Systems unveiled the world’s first cabinet of publicly-demonstrated quad-core servers in August of 2006 at the Intel Developer Forum. The newest line of servers leveraging the Quad-Core Intel Xeon processors L5320 and L5310 extend Rackable Systems’ leadership in quad-core computing, enabling dramatic reduction in power consumption while maintaining superior performance. “Our newest low wattage servers demonstrate our ongoing commitment to green technology and reducing data center operational expenses,” said Giovanni Coglitore, chief technology officer at Rackable Systems. “With Intel’s new 50 watt Quad-Core processors inside Rackable Systems’ thermally efficient servers, we can meet companies’ computing needs while effectively managing skyrocketing energy costs.” Rackable Systems’ server and storage products provide an ideal solution for a broad range of data center applications, from Web hosting to High Performance Computing, financial services, oil and gas and entertainment. The company’s unique server designs support the full range of Intel processors and are delivered fully racked and cabled, enabling faster deployment times and easier serviceability while reducing operations and resource expenses. “As a committed provider of systems based on Quad-Core Intel Xeon processors, Rackable Systems continues to address customers’ growing demands for high performance, energy-efficient servers and storage systems in their data centers,” said Kirk Skaugen, vice president of Intel’s Digital Enterprise Group. “We continue to work with innovative data center solution providers, such as Rackable Systems, to ensure the most efficient, sustainable systems are built on Intel server technology.”
