This new dual-channel DDR2 (DDR400) memory option unleashes the power of the Intel® Processor with Intel® Extended Memory 64 Technology by matching the processor front-side bus bandwidth with an equal and balanced 6.4GB of memory bandwidth. This new higher peak bandwidth/transfer rate is designed to deliver up to 20% higher performance than the previous DDR memory offerings. DDR400 memory is one of the highest performing memory architectures available in the Intel® server market today.

One of the key features of this new memory advance is the Fine Pitch Ball Grid Array (FPBGA) packaging technology, which allows for a slim module design that helps increase the air flow space between the memory module and the circuit board. This increased air flow may equate to improved system thermal performance and overall system reliability.
