About This Manual

This manual is written for system integrators, PC technicians and

knowledgeable PC users. It provides information for the installation and use of

the

X7DB8-X/X7DBE-X motherboard. The X7DB8-X/X7DBE-X

supports dual Intel

Xeon 64-bit dual core processors at a front side bus speed of

1333/1066/667 MHz. With dual Xeon 64-bit dual core processors, the 5000P chipset,

and eight DDR2 FBD 667/533 memory modules built-in, the X7DB8-X/X7DBE-X

offers substantial functionality and performance enhancements to the motherboards

based on the dual core NetBurst microarchitecture while remaining compatible with

the 32-bit based software. Key features include the Intel Hyper-Threading Technol-

ogy, Virtualization Technology, Hyper Pipelined Technology, Execution Trace Cache,

Thermal Monitor 1/2 (TM1/TM2), Enhanced Intel SpeedStep technology, Advanced

Dynamic Execution, Advanced Transfer Cache, Streaming SIMD Extensions 3

(SSE3) and Extended Memory 64 Technology (EM64T). These features allow the

motherboard to operate at much higher speeds with better power management in

much safer environments than the traditional motherboards. The X7DB8-X/X7DBE-

X is ideal for high performance dual processor (DP) enterprise server/workstation

environments. This product is intended to be professionally installed.
