Dual-core Xeon processor for LGA 771 servers
The Intel Xeon X5260 is a dual-core server processor that runs at 3.33 GHz with a 1333 MHz front-side bus. It provides 6 MB of L2 cache and fits the LGA 771 socket. The 45 nm design has a thermal design power of 80 W.
Sustained load behaviour within 80 W envelope
Under continuous workloads the chip maintains its rated frequency while staying inside the 80 W thermal envelope. The 45 nm process helps keep power draw stable during extended compute tasks rather than allowing short bursts to exceed the rated limit.

Questions about this item
How much power does the Xeon X5260 draw under full load all day?
The processor has an 80 W thermal design power, so sustained workloads will pull up to that level from the motherboard's voltage regulators.
Which socket must the motherboard provide for the Xeon X5260 to fit?
It requires an LGA 771 (Socket J) motherboard with a compatible chipset and BIOS support for 45 nm dual-core Xeons.
