Disclaimers
When ordering two processors, the second processor must be the same as the first. Intel processor
numbers are not a measurement of higher performance. Processor numbers differentiate features within
each processor family, not across different processor families. See:
http://www.intel.com/products/processor_number/
for details.
Quad-Core, Six-Core, Eight-Core , Ten-Core and Twelve-Core technologies are designed to improve
performance of multithreaded software products and hardware-aware multitasking operating systems
and may require appropriate operating system software for full benefits; check with software provider to
determine suitability; Not all customers or software applications will necessarily benefit from use of these
technologies.
64-bit computing on Intel® 64 architecture requires a computer system with a processor, chipset, BIOS,
operating system, device drivers, and applications enabled for Intel® 64 architecture. Processors will not
operate (including 32-bit operation) without an Intel® 64 architecture-enabled BIOS. Performance will vary
depending on your hardware and software configurations. See:

information.
