Xeon Server Under 100W
Oct 1, 2009
I'm doing some math here for a colocation project. We need each 1U server to consum less than 100W (220V) or else no more than 0,5A
I was looking for Dell PowerEdge R410, it offers several processor options.
Both these have 60W TDP:
Intel® Xeon® L5520, 2.26Ghz, 8M Cache, 5.86 GT/s QPI, Turbo, HT, 1066MHz Max Mem
Intel® Xeon® L5506, 2.13Ghz, 4M Cache, 4.86 GT/s QPI, 800MHz Max Mem
And both these have 80W TDP:
Intel® Xeon® E5504, 2.0Ghz, 4M Cache, 800MHz Max Mem
Intel® Xeon® E5502, 1.86Ghz, 4M Cache, 800MHz Max Mem
I'm thinking of having 4x 1TB HDD's and a 3ware raid controller.
Do you think it's possible to stay under 100W with this configuration, using the L55xx processors?
Are these L55xx worthy? Or it's a waste of money?

I'm thinking in changing my actual dedicated server, but I'm not sure if I will win with the change.
I use it for web hosting, but I am going to need a lot of Mysql use.
I also want to work with Flash Media Server or Red5, but I have the project stopped.
All are almost in the same price. What do you recommend me?
I have never touched Linux and my Server is Windows 2003, do you recommend me to change to Linux?

I'm trying to figure out for sure which is best. Which would you do? The second is a bit older technology, I guess, but it seems to me that two discreet older Xeons would be better than one dual core newer Xeon.
Xeon 3040 Dual Core 1.86GHz (Conroe)
+ Single Processor Dual Core
+ 2GB RAM
+ 2 x 250GB SATA Drive
+ Cpanel/whm/fantastico
+ RedHat Enterprise 5 Linux
+ 10 IP Addresses
+ 1500GB Monthly Transfer
+ 10mbps Uplink
$174 Per Month
-OR-
Dual Xeon 2.8GHz
+ 2GB RAM
+ 2x 80GB IDE Drives
+ Cpanel/whm/fantastico
+ RedHat Enterprise 5 Linux
+ 10 IP Addresses

Softlayer is pricing these both the same, and I've been a big fan of the
x3220 for a long time now. I haven't been able to fine ANY reasonably priced servers that can out perform the x3220 in computational ability.
That said, does anyone have any figures that would suggest the 5410 is better?
Single Processor Quad Core Xeon 5410 - 2.33GHz (Harpertown) - 1 x 12MB cache
vs
Single Processor Quad Core Xeon 3220 - 2.40GHz (Kentsfield) - 2 x 4MB cache
Clearly the cache is bigger, but for me, it's about speed and computation.
I can't find any references to the x5410 in the VPS vs Dedicated thhread.

I just ordered a dell server a few days ago and have noticed in addition to a free harddrive upgrade I now have an upgraded processor for the same price.
PE860 Quad-Core Xeon X3220 2.4GHz/2x4MB 1066FSB (105W)
Free Processor Upgrade to QC Xeon 5320
The question for me is which is better? The previous processor was the low energy 105W one which suited me fine as I'm co-locating this to a DC where they are very strict on power consumption.
Is this one going to provide a noticable performance increase over the first? Is it a major power hog?

What is better for gaming? I plan on hosting quite a few Call of Duty 4 servers.
Dual Xeon Woodcrest 5130
4GB Memory RAM
250GB 8MB SATA2 Hard Drive
or
Dual Xeon Clovertown E5335
2GB Memory RAM
80GB 8MB SATA2 Hard Drive
Operating System: Centos
Are the Xeon 3220's able to run Dual?
Are these even good for gaming? Do you have any suggestions besides these two?

There's something I've always wondered, what makes a Xeon a Xeon?
For instance, what is the difference between a Core 2 Quad Q9300 and a Quad-Core Xeon E5420. Both are quad core, have a 1333MHz FSB, run at 2.5GHz, have SSE4.1, any all the specs seem identical.
Only difference I see is the Xeon has 12MB cache compared to the Q9300's 6MB.
But generally speaking, what makes a Xeon such much better for a server environment than a Core 2 processor.

Which is a better option? Both priced same, I know with the Xeon 5310 the possibility of upgrading to dual cpu's.

If you have experience with large mysql databases please share your thoughts about a new MySQL server. If all other parameters are the same, what is better for a 6-10 GB MySQL db, dedicated server?
Dual XEON or Dual Opteron 2212 Dual Core Processor?
Also, any advice on suggested RAM, partitioning, OS, etc. are welcome. Current MySQL version used is 4.1.21.

on Ebay for some entry level servers to put in colo for some personal sites. I already have the space so I ruled out renting any, and I see that you can get some pretty good deals on the MPs, I see a few quad 1.4/1.5ghz. But how would they compare to todays processors? What should I expect from them?

So the question is, Intel® Xeon® Processor 7041 (4M Cache, 3.00 GHz, 800 MHz FSB) are those still good for hosting some shared accounts?
Following link does not give it a good ranking
[url] even Atom and Celeron are having better ranking.
Well to make discussion more focused, a bunch of WP blogs around 50, few static, few dynamic, and around 2500 emails (in+out apart from filtered incoming SPAM) are running fine on an old 1Gb OpenVZ VPS without much load, but sites are becoming very slow (maybe shared pipe), now we have to move this client and all of his sites.
What's your say about this Xeon 7041 based server with 2Gb RAM, is it good enough for current scenario?

How much better are Xeon processors than Core 2 Duo processors? What goes into the brand difference? I know that they're built on the same architecture, but I'm unsure as to which is better.
I've got two choices, both Intel processors built on the Kentsfield Core 2 architecture.
Stats seem exactly alike, except one difference: the Core 2 Duo processor has a 9x multiplier (2.4GHz), while the Xeon processor has a 8x multiplier (2.13 GHz). I really see no advantage in taking the Xeon processor, which costs more. Multiplier difference shouldn't make a big deal.
So, anybody know what goes into the "Xeon" brand these days? The exact model numbers, by the way, are Q6600 for the Core 2 Duo and X3210 for the Xeon.

if there is already an equivalent Xeon for the i7 processors?
I mean that for example C2Q Q6600 is equivalent for X3220 if I'm right.
Also, I guess those Servers will cost a lot more, not only because the processor is very costly but it also requires DDR3 RAM which is still nowadays quite expensive...

One's a desktop chip, the other a specialised server one.
In terms of performance, will there be a big difference between the pair? I know the Q9950 is a cheaper processor but there isn't much difference between them on the cpu benchmark Website.
This is what I was told by ThePlanet:
As for the quote you wanted for the core 2 quad Q9550, that is slightly less powerful than the xeon 3360. We do not offer desktop grade procesors in our servers, that would be misleading to our customers. Same as the RAM we offer, we offer ECC fully buffered RAM, not desktop grade.
This is a huge difference between providers like The Planet and other mom and pop shops you see around the internet.

I can't find any direct comparisons but I am thinking of upping our server to quad core. I'm just wondering if there is a direct comparison out there - and frankly hoping it won't be much of one seeing as how it's dual core vs. quad core.
