Review of Intel Dual-Core Xeon 5130 / 2 GHz processor by owais997

Advantages: ideal for intense computing environments
Disadvantages: none

...Very good Speed and unbelieveable performance and The Dual-Core Intel Xeon processor 5100 series is ideal for intense computing environments, 32-bit and 64-bit business-critical applications and high-end workstation and Analysis in my mind Dual-Core Intel Xeon processor 5100 series-based platforms are expected to deliver up to 2.25 times the performance and 2.35 times the performance/watt of previous-generation dual-core Intel Xeon processors and realiable performance and I always advice my friends,visiter and colike. In my view overall good performance Easily purchase. Good Manufacture support and overall we see performance,efficiency,design very valuable. Mostly people perfer and All this report in my survey and judge 80% people perfer this and I also recommend you please purchase.... Read review

Intel Dual-Core Xeon 5130 / 2 GHz processor
Review of Intel Dual-Core Xeon 5130 / 2 GHz processor by mop591

Advantages: very fast, reliable
Disadvantages: pricey, need to have IT knowledge

...This dual 2GHZ core processor with combined speed of 4Ghz and a 4Mb Cache makes a very fast pc and will cope easily with many demanding programs running at once. There are probably better deals for the same or better processors, but you are paying for the quality, many dont have a high 4Mb cache. This would be most recommend for IT technicians or people who know what they are doing. The main let down of this is the variation in the price, while this may be good, you dont want to be paying too much when you can get a compute just as good for the same high price or cheaper. But as i said before, if you can get a good deal, and know what your talking about, this is most recommended... Read review

ML370 G4 - Quality at a price
Review of HP ProLiant ML370 G4 High Performance - Xeon 3.4 GHz by dcluroe_sur

Advantages: Build quality - array controller included reliable
Disadvantages: Not the cheapest / G5 available

...We have always purchased 370's for a good all-rounder, the G4 is no different. So far we've only experienced problems with the G2's, at least 5 with system board failures.. and still counting. The G4 is well made and if using the rack model is very quick and easy to install. The smartstart software is easy to use together with array config software, and you get HPSIM to monitor your servers which is nice. Also the integerated ILO its good for support / headless servers. The high performance model gives you dual processing, more ram, array controller and some extra redundancy in the shape of fans and psu. If you need this kind of spec then buying this way should save you some cash, in particular the dual processor. With the release of the G5 with dual core processing as standard not to mention a whole host of additional features... Read review
