Intel Corporation Intel® 7300 chipset

The Intel® 7300 Chipset with Data Traffic Optimizations improve data movement across Intel® Xeon® processor 7300 series-based servers by increasing interconnect bandwidth, optimizing system bandwidth, increasing memory capacity, and improving network traffic processing while reducing I/O latency as compared to previous platforms. The Intel® 7300 Chipset matches the improved performance of the Intel® Xeon® processor 7300 series and Intel® Xeon® processor 7200 series to bring additional performance and platform improvements to the expandable segment. The chipsets incorporate four high-speed interconnects that move data at 1066 MT/s (megatransfers per second), FBDIMM support for up to 256 GB of memory capacity, a 64MB cached snoop filter for reduced traffic on the dedicated high speed interconnects, and improvements to Intel® I/O Acceleration Technology. Additionally, the Intel® 7300 Chipset has 28 lanes of PCI Express* with support for third party expanders for additional I/O.
