NextComputing has added a faster processor model, the quad-core Intel Xeon processor LV5430, which runs at 2.66 GHz, to its NextDimension flextop computers and Vigor rugged portables, as well as its NextServer Evo rackmount server.

The Intel 5400 chipset improves data movement across Intel Xeon processor 5400 series-based workstations and HPC systems by increasing interconnect bandwidth, optimizing system bandwidth, increasing memory capacity, and improving network traffic processing while reducing I/O latency.

The series delivers up to 30% higher performance for most HPC applications and up to 50% higher performance for optimized workloads over previous-generation Intel quad-core processors, according to the company.

Intel’s Xeon quad-core 2.66 GHZ processors are available on the NextDimension Pro and Pro HD, the NextDimension Evo and Evo HD, the Vigor Pro SD and Evo HD, as well as the new NextServer Evo.
