Cisco UCS B200 M2 Blade Server
CONFIGURING the SERVER
9
The available 5500-series CPUs are listed in
Table 4
.
Approved Configurations
(1) One-CPU Configuration
■
Choose any one CPU from
Table 3
or
Table 4
.
(2) Two-CPU Configuration
■
Choose two identical CPUs from any one of the rows of
Table 3
or
Table 4
.
Caveats
■
You must select either one CPU or two identical CPUs.
■
For optimal performance, select DIMMs with the highest clock speed for a given processor. If
you select DIMMs whose speeds are lower or higher than that shown in the tables,
suboptimal performance will result.

Notes . . .
1. If higher or lower speed DIMMs are selected than what is shown in the table for a given CPU, the DIMMs will be
clocked at the lowest common denominator of CPU clock and DIMM clock. For example:
Selecting lower-speed DIMMs: if you use an X5570 CPU (which can support up to 1333-MHz DIMMs) with 1066-MHz
DIMMs, the DIMMs will be clocked at the lower speed of 1066 MHz.
Selecting higher-speed DIMMs: If you use 1333-MHz DIMMs with an E5520 (which can support up to 1066-MHz DIMMs),
the DIMMS will be clocked at the lower speed of 1066 MHz.
