System x3755, 2 x AMD Opteron 8378, 2.4GHz, 2MB L2 Cache, 4x1GB ECC, SAS, 1x1500W
-The industry’s only AMD Opteron™-based system capable of a three-processor configuration, delivering outstanding performance for lower cost.
-Outstanding leadership with IBM Xcelerated Memory Technology™.
-Deliver superb performance per watt with this cost-effective solution.
When is 3>4?
The IBM® System x3755 provides unmatched price, performance and energy efficiency with three quad-core AMD Opteron processors and IBM’s exclusive CPU Pass Thru card. This innovative CPU Pass Thru card delivers near-linear performance and flexible configurations with headroom to grow in one-CPU increments— providing real savings while increasing performance. For instance, at a 34% lower cost1 the x3755 with three processors plus the CPU Pass Thru card outperforms the four-processor Dell R900 by 7% and with 29% better performance/watt.
Fully populated memory, full speed, full time
The x3755, using IBM’s exclusive Xcelerated Memory Technology, is the only AMD Opteron-based four-socket server capable of running fully populated memory at a full 667 MHz. Competitive systems are forced to clock memory speed back to 533 MHz with fully populated DIMMs. The x3755 provides outstanding memory price performance for general purpose computing environments, mission-critical business applications and virtualized environments.
Easy to use
Features such as the pull-down light path diagnostics panel and IBM Predictive Failure Analysis® allow quick and easy identification of component failures, helping to maximize uptime. With light path diagnostics for major components such as hard disk drives, memory and CPU, along with fans, voltage regulator modules and power supplies, the x3755 delivers a full set of alerts to help keep your system running at maximum efficiency.
