IBM xSeries 336 servers feature processors up to
3.8 GHz with Intel EM64T
servers for outstanding computing power
Overview
The xSeries
336 server is designed
to handle compute-intensive,
Web-based, or enterprise network
applications. Optimized for EM64T,
the xSeries 336 server helps you
migrate to 64-bit computing.
This highly manageable, ultrathin,
1 U high rack-optimized server
features two-way SMP-capable
processors, high availability, and
scalability.
