Dell PowerEdge R470 — Full Technical Specifications

The processor row is the one to read twice, because it names two quite different kinds of processor — an efficiency-core part with a very high count and a performance-core part with fewer and faster ones. They suit different work, they reach different memory ceilings, and the choice cannot be revisited cheaply. Everything below follows from it. The bay row favours the ruler format, which is the direction this class of machine is moving and which means drives are not shared with an older estate. Two network seats and a data-processing option in the accelerator row point at where this model is expected to be used: dense, network-heavy, single-socket estates.
