There are many "embedded features" available on an "Intel Xeon Processor." One such embedded feature is an "extended life cycle support" which offers users a longer life on the processor.
Intel offers a range of different server processors. These include, to name a few, the Intel Xeon Processor E3, The Intel Xeon Processor E5 and the Intel Xeon Processor E7.
Existence. There is no such thing as an "Intel Other" processor.
Intel Xeon Quad Core Processor The Xeon is a brand of multiprocessing or multi -socket capable microprossors from intel. Quad means four cores
Xeon is a processor brand by Intel. It is a multi-core processor brand mean to be run in servers and embedded systems.
Intel® Xeon® processor 5500 series. As of December 2008.
Between June 1998 and May 2012, hundreds of Intel Xeon processors have been created and sold. There are 49 models of the Intel Xeon processor, with a multitude of variations for each of the models.
Xeon (according to Wikipedia)
The kind of processor you would expect with a PowerEdge 1950 is either Dual-Core Intel Xeon 5100, Xeon 5000 or Xeon Low Volt 5148 or Quad-Core Xeon 5300.
That depends on generation of each processor. If they are both belong to the same production period Intel Xeon is more powerful. In some cases difference in 1-2 generation might not matter and Xeon would be still more powerful. You will have to be more specific if you want to receive a better answer.
Intel® Xeon® Processor 5500 series
The top ten fastest processors for computers are Intel Xeon ES 2678W, Intel Core i7 3970X, Intel Core i7 3770K, Intel Core i5 3570K, intel Core i5 3470, INtel Core i3 3225, AMD FX 8350, AMD FX 6300, AMD FX 4300, AMD A10 5700.
No. Xeon processors use different chipsets and sockets, thus they are not interchangeable with mainstream processors.
