The Intel® Xeon™ Processor with 533 MHz Front Side Bus is designed for high-performance
dual-processor workstation and server applications. Based on the Intel® NetBurst™ micro-
architecture and the new Hyper-Threading Technology, it is binary compatible with previous
Intel Architecture (IA-32) processors. The Intel Xeon processor with 533 MHz Front Side Bus is
scalable to two processors in a multiprocessor system providing exceptional performance for
applications running on advanced operating systems such as Windows XP*, Windows* 2000,
Linux*, and UNIX*.
The Intel Xeon processor with 533 MHz Front
Side Bus delivers compute power at unparalleled
value and flexibility for powerful workstations,
internet infrastructure, and departmental server
applications. The Intel® NetBurst™ micro-
architecture and Hyper-Threading Technology
deliver outstanding performance and headroom
for peak internet server workloads, resulting in
faster response times, support for more users, and
improved scalability.
