About the AMD Athlon XP 1700+ CPU
The AMD Athlon XP 1700+ is an end-of-life 1-core (1-thread) processor built for the desktop CPU market. It launched in Q1 2001. It is part of AMD's Athlon XP lineup, which is based on the Thoroughbred-B microarchitecture. The XP 1700+ is compatible with AMD Socket A motherboards and is fabricated on a 130 nm manufacturing process.
Memory and Cache
In terms of cache, the Athlon XP 1700+ has multiple levels of cache. Its L1 cache, which is the smallest and fastest, is 128 KB in size, providing rapid access to crucial instructions. Its L2 cache, at 256 KB, is larger but slower than the L1.
Cores and Clock Speeds
The Athlon XP 1700+ is a single-core and single-threaded CPU, making it not capable of processing multiple computational tasks in parallel. The base clock speed of the CPU is 1467.0 MHz. Higher clock speeds result in higher performance for the same microarchitecture. The multiplier is locked, making it incapable of overclocking for pushing performance further.
Integrated Graphics
The Athlon XP 1700+ does not include an integrated graphics solution. A dedicated graphics card will be required if you require a monitor with your computer.
About the Intel Xeon E5606 CPU
The Intel Xeon E5606 is an end-of-life 4-core (4-thread) processor built for the server CPU market. It launched in Q1 2011. It is part of Intel's Xeon lineup, which is based on the Westmere-EP microarchitecture. The E5606 is compatible with Intel Socket 1366 motherboards and is fabricated on Intel's 32 nm manufacturing process.
Memory and Cache
The Xeon E5606 supports DDR3 memory and features a triple-channel memory controller, allowing it to utilize 3 memory modules simultaneously. In terms of cache, the Xeon E5606 has multiple levels of cache. Its L1 cache, which is the smallest and fastest, is 64 KB in size, providing rapid access to crucial instructions. Its L2 cache, at 256 KB, is larger but slower than the L1. Its L3 cache, a shared resource among the CPU's cores, has a capacity of 8 MB.
Cores and Clock Speeds
The Xeon E5606 features 4 total cores which can process 4 threads simultaneously. The multi-threading capability allows the CPU to execute multiple computational tasks in parallel. The base clock speed of the CPU is 2.1 GHz. Higher clock speeds result in higher performance for the same microarchitecture. The multiplier is locked, making it incapable of overclocking for pushing performance further.
Integrated Graphics
The Xeon E5606 does not include an integrated graphics solution. A dedicated graphics card will be required if you require a monitor with your computer.
