About the Intel Xeon E5440 CPU

The Intel Xeon E5440 is an end-of-life 4-core (4-thread) processor built for the server CPU market. It launched in Q4 2007 with a suggested retail price of $690. It is part of Intel's Xeon lineup, which is based on the Harpertown microarchitecture. The E5440 is compatible with Intel Socket 771 motherboards and is fabricated on Intel's 45 nm manufacturing process.

Memory and Cache

The Xeon E5440 supports DDR2, DDR3 memory and features a dual-channel memory controller, allowing it to utilize 2 memory modules simultaneously. In terms of cache, the Xeon E5440 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 6 MB, is larger but slower than the L1.

Cores and Clock Speeds

The Xeon E5440 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 2.8 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 E5440 does not include an integrated graphics solution. A dedicated graphics card will be required if you require a monitor with your computer.
