The xw6200 and xw8200 are based on the intel e7525 (codenamed tumwater) chipset and support the latest 'nocona 'Xeon processors, the selling point of this processor is that it uses Intel's 64-bit extended memory technology (Intel em64t). In other words, this processor has the ability to run 64-bit code and use more memory, theoretically, up to TB of memory can be managed. It meets the needs of users in high-end PC environments, such as computer-aided design, digital image processing, financial analysis, and geographic exploration. Xw6200 and xw8200 support x16 PCI Express graphics cards and 400 MHz DDR2 ECC memory. The processor uses 1 MB L2 cache, which is twice the upper generation Xeon processor.
The xw6200 is located in a mid-range product with dual-processor and is assigned with the function of simultaneously hosting 8 monitors. You may think that it is unnecessary to use 8 monitors at the same time, however, this is especially suitable for situations where the financial stock industry needs to observe and analyze a large amount of data in real time and make quick judgments.
The xw8200 provides 8 memory expansion slots. Once a 2 GB memory module is available, the xw8200 can use up to 16 GB of memory, and it also supports the management of TB hard disks, this is sufficient for the current data collection scale.
Another high-end PC model launched at the same time is xw4200. The system is built based on the intel 925x chipset and works with a 800 MHz, 3.6 GB Pentium 4 processor and supports 533 MHz DDR2 memory, the motherboard provides four SATA interfaces, and HP also said that xw4200 will also support Intel's em64t technology soon.
Xw6200 and xw8200 are expected to be available in early 1259, with prices of 1620 euros and euros (excluding tax) respectively. xw4200 will also meet with consumers in March.
