Maximum multitasking performance Intel® Microarchitecture (Nehalem) offers the latest in processor innovation, including: Dynamic scalability, managed cores, threads, cache, interfaces, and power for energy-efficient performance on demand. Design and performance scalability for servers, workstations, notebooks and desktops with support for 2-8+ cores and up to 16+ threads with Intel® Hyper-Threading Technology (Intel® HT Technology), and scalable cache sizes, system interconnects, and integrated memory controllers. Intel® Turbo Boost Technology delivers additional performance automatically when needed by taking advantage of the processor's power and thermal headroom. This enables increased performance of both multi-threaded and single-threaded workloads.

The HP Z600 Workstation supports

• Unbuffered 1-GB, 2-GB, and 4-GB single- and dualrank PC3-10600E 1333 MHZ ECC DIMMs
• Registered 4-GB and 8-GB dual-rank PC3-10600R
1333 MHz DIMMs
• Support for Registered DIMMs requires a system board with the C2 revision of the Intel® 5520 chipset. To determine if a specific HP Z600 system has the C2 revision of the chipset:
1. Use the BIOS setup menu to access the “Boot Block Date” from the “System Information Menu.” All B3-based systems will have a “1/30/09” date and C2-based systems will have a “01/07/10” date.
