Chapter 1: Introduction
1-9
1-2 Chipset
Overview
Built upon the functionality and the capability of the 5000P (Blackford) chipset, the
X7DB8/X7DBE motherboard provides the performance and feature set required
for dual processor-based servers with confi guration options optimized for com-
munications, presentation, storage, computation or database applications. The
5000P (Blackford) chipset supports single or dual Xeon 64-bit quad-core/dual-core
processor(s) with front side bus speeds of up to 1.333 GHz. The chipset consists of
the 5000P (Blackford) Memory Controller Hub (MCH), the Enterprise South Bridge
2 (ESB2), and the I/O subsystem (PXH).
The 5000P (Blackford) MCH chipset is designed for symmetric multiprocessing
across two independent front side bus interfaces. Each front side bus uses a 64-
bit wide, 1333 MHz data bus that transfers data at 10.7 GB/sec. In addition, the
5000P (Blackford) chipset offers a wide range of RAS features, including memory
interface ECC, x4/x8 Single Device Data Correction, CRC, parity protection, memory
mirroring and memory sparing.
The Xeon Quad-core/dual-core Processor Features
Designed to be used with conjunction of the 5000P (Blackford) chipset, the Xeon
quad-core/dual-core Processor provides a feature set as follows:
The Xeon Quad-core/dual-core Processors
*L1 Cache Size: Instruction Cache (32KB/16KB), Data Cache (32KB/24KB)
*L2 Cache Size: 4MB/2MB (per core)
*Data Bus Transfer Rate: 8.5 GB/s
*Package: FC-LGA6/FC-LGA4, 771 Lands
