The Bottom Line
The x3200 is an extremely powerful entry system, building on the legacy of the x206m server by
incorporating leading-edge industry-standard features and adding IBM-unique innovations:
Performance
• High-throughput processors — 1.86 to 2.4GHz dual-core Xeon processors or 3.0 to
3.4GHz dual-core Pentium D processors
• Large cache — 2MB or 4MB of L2 processor cache
• 64-bit extensions (EM64T)
• High-performance front-side bus —800MHz or 1066MHz FSB (model-specific)
• Fast memory —667MHz PC2-5300 DDR II ECC memory standard with two-way
interleaving
• Fast disk technology — Integrated SAS/SATA controller and slotless hardware-based RAID
controller (standard in hot-swap models; optional in simple-swap models)
• Fast communications — Integrated Gigabit Ethernet controller
• Fast I/O —PCI-E x8 adapter slot
Flexibility
