IBM 09P5262 – 1-Way Power3 – II 450 MHz

Detailed Description:

The IBM 09P5262 refers to a 1-way processor module featuring the Power3-II architecture, operating at a clock speed of 450 MHz. This module was part of IBM’s high-performance computing and server solutions, extending their line of RISC (Reduced Instruction Set Computing) based processors. The Power3-II series is known for its emphasis on floating-point performance, making this processor particularly suited for scientific computing, complex mathematical calculations, and database operations where accuracy and speed are paramount. With a single processing core (hence ‘1-Way’), this module was designed to improve the computational capabilities of IBM servers, enhancing their efficiency in handling demanding applications. Its 450 MHz frequency, while modest by contemporary standards, was indicative of the high-performance computing thresholds during its release, offering businesses a significant boost in processing power for critical workloads.
