• Intel, processors, chipsets, and desktop boards may contain design defects or errors known as errata, which may cause the product to deviate from published specifications. Current characterized errata are available on request.
• Intel Virtualization Technology requires a computer system with a processor, chipset, BIOS, virtual machine monitor (VMM) and applications enabled for virtualization technology. Functionality, performance or other virtualization technology benefits will vary depending on hardware and software configurations. Virtualization technology-enabled BIOS and VMM applications are currently in development.
• 64-bit computing on Intel architecture requires a computer system with a processor, chipset, BIOS, operating system, device drivers and applications enabled for Intel® 64 architecture.

The Cost of Waiting in 2010
1 Monthly Savings in utility and OS costs is determined by comparing the incremental costs associated with not refreshing 500 older single-core servers purchased back in 2005 vs. refreshing on a 15:1 ratio with new Xeon 5600 servers in Year 1. Warranty cost assumes $750/year per server if purchased after the initial OEM 3-year warranty period has expired. Actual costs are $50,877 (software), $18,641 (utility), and $31,250 (warranty), or >$100,000 total. Source: Xeon Server Refresh Savings Estimator. (www.intel.com/go/xeonestimator) using publicly available RHEL OS support costs and default utility settings.

Sell-up Opportunities with Xeon® 5600Xeon® E5640 (4C “Standard”) Xeon® X5650 (6C “Advanced”)
Pricing based on publicly available pricing for Xeon X5540 and Xeon 5550, 48GB memory (12x4GB) 1 146GB SAS Drive based DL 380 G6 at www.hp.com along with estimated Xeon 5600-EP cost adders. Utilizing public available pricing for Windows Standard Edition and VMware ESX software pricing as found in the Xeon® Server Refresh Savings Estimator. Performance source: Intel internal measurements on SPECint*_rate_base2006 as of February 2010. See backup for details.Relative performance is calculated by assigning a baseline value of 1.0 to one benchmark result, and then dividing the actual benchmark result for the baseline platform into each of the specific benchmark results of each of the other platforms, and assigning them a relative performance number that correlates with the performance improvements reported. Performance tests and ratings are measured using specific computer systems and/or components and reflect the approximate performance of Intel products as measured by those tests.

Intel® TXT Platform Requirements
• Intel® TXT requires ALL of the following components:– Intel® Xeon® 5600 Series Processor– Intel ® 5500 or 5520 chipset (C2 stepping)– Trusted Platform Module (TPM)– Enabled platform BIOS– Enabled Hypervisor or Operating System
• A platform without any of these components will boot normally, but without Intel® TXT trusted launch support

Intel® TXT Ecosystem and Enabling• OEM Platforms: Intel expects a number of leading OEMs and
Intel’s EPSD to deliver TXT-capable platforms in 2010– Unlikely that OEM platforms will have full TXT capability at Intel®
Xeon® 5500 processor launch– Intel will support several OEMs announcing platforms that will be
“TXT Ready” with all required platform HW components at launch, with a TXT-enabled BIOS upgrade post-launch
• Software: Ecosystem enablement spread through 2010-2011– Pending completion of enablement activity on qual platforms and
OEM system validation– Two Hypervisor vendors targeting Q3/Q4’10 releases supporting
TXT, with 2+ additional Hypervisor / OS vendors pending 1H’11

5 Month Single Core Refresh ROI Claim – Back Up
• 5 month ROI claim estimated based on comparison between 2S Single Core Intel® Xeon® 3.80 with 2M L2 Cache and 2S Intel® Xeon® X5680 based servers. Calculation includes analysis based on performance, power, cooling, electricity rates, operating system annual license costs and estimated server costs. This assumes 8kW racks, $0.10 per kWh, cooling costs are 2x the server power consumption costs, operating system license cost of $900/year per server, per server cost of $7200 based on estimated list prices and estimated server utilization rates. All dollar figures are approximate. Performance and power comparisons are based on measured server side java benchmark results (Intel Corporation Feb 2010). Platform power was measured during the steady state window of the benchmark run and at idle. Performance gain compared to baseline was 15x.
