Internal on the platform. The servers are stable, work
perfectly and with incredible performance gains, but
we need more time to validate a Dynamic in
the server PRO (not before January 2009). That said,
Core Platform i7 is a major innovation and we are having
you propose to the day of his departure (24 H). We did that
5 servers ... It's really hot, fresh
What's new on the platform Core i7?
2 major changes:
- I7 Core processors are designed for the market players
in order to replace the series of Core2 Extreme.
- These are 4 CPU cores with 8 threads, and not 4 threads
like all Quad current market. It is possible
to HT (Hyper-Threading), which allows it to carry out the cores in
instructions to treat (each core has 2 inputs instead 1).
- Also thanks to Turbo Boost, the processor verifies the need
Instant calculation can change the number of cores in
operation and the frequency of each core. Indeed,
power consumption of a traditional CPU is the same
operating at full load that rest! It's incredible
but it's true. The consumption of a datacentre is the same
17 hours at 4 o'clock in the morning! With Turbo Boost, consumption
CPU changes depending on the actual computing needs. It's simple
but terribly effective (this technology is already available
in the RPS 3 on the AMD accepted)
- Communication between the processor and memory change.
- There is no L2 cache. There is the L3 cache with a bus quickpath
of 4.8GT / s. In the end, the performance gain access to the
memory is 100%!
- Instead of 2 channels, the CPU uses 3 channels of access to
RAM. It will therefore Core i7 with the birth of servers
3GB of RAM, 6go RAM, 9Go RAM, 12GB of RAM, large multiple
3 instead of multiple of 2. This is the DDR3 RAM at 1067MHz.
The finale, the new platform is a bombshell Performance
while having a great power "Eco Friendly".
We offer a Kimsufi 8XL with 6go RAM, 250GB disk SATA2
and 100Mbps SLA Standard 99Euro HV / months without installation costs.
Kimsufi 4XL was changed slightly: it comes with 4GB of
RAM instead of 8GB of RAM 59Euro HT / month instead of 69Euro HT / month.
Kimsufi 4XL becomes 4 cores cheapest on the market!
