IBM Power 720 and 740 Technical Overview and Introduction
Table 1-6 lists the available processor features for the Power 720.
Table 1-6 Processor features for the Power 720
The Power 740 requires that one or two processor modules be installed. If two
processor modules are installed, they must be identical. Table 1-7 lists the available
processor features.
Table 1-7 Processor features for the Power 740
1.4.6 Memory features
In processor-based systems, DDR3 memory is used for throughout. The
DDR3 memory uses a memory architecture to provide greater bandwidth and
capacity. This enables operating at a higher data rate for larger memory configurations.
Memory in the Power 720 and 740 systems is installed into memory riser cards. One memory
riser card is included in the base system. The base memory riser card is not listed as a
feature code in the configurator. Additional memory riser cards, feature FC EM01, can be
installed up to a maximum of two per processor module. Each memory riser card provides
eight DDR3 DIMM slots. DIMMs are available in capacities of 4 GB, 8 GB, 16 GB, and 32 GB
at 1066 MHz and are installed in pairs.
Table 1-8 lists available memory features on the systems.
Table 1-8 Summary of memory features
For performance optimization, install memory evenly across all memory riser cards in the
system. Balancing memory across the installed memory riser cards allows memory access
in a consistent manner and typically results in the best possible performance for your
configuration. However, balancing memory fairly evenly across multiple memory riser
cards, compared to balancing memory exactly evenly typically has a small difference in
performance.
