Description
Product Information
The HPE Intel Xeon E5-2620v3 processor is designed for use in the HPE ML350 Gen9 server. It is a high-performance processor with six cores, a clock speed of 2.40GHz, and 15MB of L3 cache. It is built using Intel’s 22nm manufacturing process, which allows for a higher density of transistors on the chip. In this article, we will explore the features and benefits of this processor in detail.
Processor Speed and Cores
The HPE Intel Xeon E5-2620v3 processor has a clock speed of 2.40GHz, which is the frequency at which the processor’s cores can execute instructions. This processor has six cores, which means it can execute six sets of instructions simultaneously. This makes it a good choice for applications that require a lot of processing power, such as virtualization, databases, and scientific computing.
L3 Cache
The processor has a 15MB L3 cache, which is a type of memory that is built into the processor. The L3 cache is used to store frequently accessed data so that it can be accessed quickly by the processor. This helps to improve the performance of the processor, especially when dealing with large data sets. The larger the L3 cache, the more data the processor can store, and the faster it can access that data.
QPI Speed
The processor has a QPI (Quick Path Interconnect) speed of 8GT/s. QPI is a high-speed interconnect that allows processors to communicate with each other and with other components in the system. A higher QPI speed means that data can be transferred between components more quickly, which can help to improve system performance.
Socket FCLGA2011-3
The processor uses the FCLGA2011-3 socket, which is a type of socket used to connect the processor to the motherboard. This socket is designed for high-performance processors and supports features such as multiple cores, high-speed memory, and advanced power management. The FCLGA2011-3 socket is also designed to handle high thermal loads, which is important for processors that generate a lot of heat.
85W TDP
The processor has a TDP (thermal design power) of 85W. TDP is a measure of the maximum amount of heat that the processor can generate under normal operating conditions. This is important because processors generate a lot of heat, and if the heat is not managed properly, it can lead to system instability and damage. The 85W TDP of the HPE Intel Xeon E5-2620v3 processor is relatively low for a processor with six cores, which means that it is designed to be energy-efficient.
22nm Manufacturing Process
The processor is built using Intel’s 22nm manufacturing process, which allows for a higher density of transistors on the chip. This means that more processing power can be packed into a smaller space, which is important for high-performance processors. The 22nm manufacturing process also allows for lower power consumption and higher energy efficiency, which is important for data centers and other large-scale computing environments.
ML350 Gen9 Server Compatibility
The HPE Intel Xeon E5-2620v3 processor is designed for use in the HPE ML350 Gen9 server. The ML350 Gen9 is a high-performance server that is designed for demanding workloads, such as virtualization, databases, and scientific computing. The processor is compatible with other components in the ML350 Gen9, such as the motherboard and memory, which means that it can be easily integrated into an existing system.
