*When ordering two processors, the second processor must be the same as the first. Intel processor numbers are not a measurement of higher performance. Processor numbers differentiate features within each processor family, not across different processor families. See: http://www.intel.com/products/processor_number/ for details.

Intel® 64 Architecture requires a computer system with a processor, chipset, BIOS, operating system, device drivers, and applications enabled for Intel® 64 Architecture. Processor will not operate (including 32-bit operation) without an Intel® 64 Architecture-enabled BIOS. Performance will vary depending on your hardware and software configurations. See: http://www.intel.com/technology/64bitextensions for more information.
