Mini ReviewIntel Xeon E5540 advantagesIntel Xeon E5620 advantagesE5540 vs E5620 specifications comparisonThe graphs below compare the most important features of the E5620 and Intel Xeon E5540 CPUs. These characteristics, as well as an IPC (instructions per cycle) number, determine how well a CPU performs. The "Number of cores / threads" graph shows the number of cores (darker area). Lighter area on the graph corresponds to the number of extra threads, provided by Hyper-Threading technology. The "Operating frequency" chart uses dark color to represent base frequency, while lighter area is for additional frequency, provided by Turbo feature. Darker area on the "On-chip cache" graph is for the On-chip L2 cache. Lighter area is for the L3 cache cache. Although the L3 cache cache is usually larger than the On-chip L2 cache, it is always slower. Show 9 7.2 5.4 3.6 1.8 0
