Actually this one is an opteron, so it looks like it's all good.

I had to look that up, web site says it is a 4-processor, dual-core
(so 8 cores) Intel Xeon system. It also says "Up to 64GB DDR II
ECC memory", so are you sure you can even get 128 GB RAM?
If you could, I'd expect diminishing returns from the Xeon
northbridge memory access. If you are willing to spend that kind
of money on memory, you'd be better off with Opteron or Sparc.
