Description
Product Overview Intel Xeon 2640 V3 2.60GHz Processor
Performance and Benchmarks
The Intel Xeon 2640 V3 is a powerful processor that is well-suited to handle demanding workloads. It offers a base clock speed of 2.60 GHz and can boost up to 3.5 GHz, with 20MB of L3 cache and a QPI of 3, it can handle complex data sets, multiple threads and large number of concurrent connections. Its performance is comparable to other processors in its class, such as the Intel Xeon E5-2650 v3.
In terms of benchmarks, the Intel Xeon 2640 V3 has received high scores on several industry-standard tests. In the SPECint2006 benchmark, it received a score of 616, while in the SPECfp2006 benchmark, it received a score of 621. These scores indicate that the processor is well-suited to handle a wide range of enterprise-level workloads, including virtualization, cloud computing, and big data analytics.
It’s important to note that the performance of a processor can also depend on the system it is installed in and the specific workload it is running. Therefore, it’s recommended to consult with benchmark results from multiple sources and under different scenarios to have a better understanding of the performance of the processor.
Comparison to Other Xeon Processors
The Intel Xeon 2640 V3 is a powerful processor, but it is not the only option available in the Xeon line. When comparing it to other Xeon processors, it is important to consider factors such as clock speed, core count, cache size, and TDP.
When compared to the Intel Xeon E5-2650 v3, the Xeon 2640 V3 has a slightly lower base clock speed of 2.60 GHz (compared to 2.30 GHz) but it has a higher turbo boost speed of 3.5GHz, and a lower TDP of 90W (compared to 135W). It also has the same amount of L3 cache and QPI. The Xeon E5-2650 v3 also has more cores, 18 cores and 36 threads.
Another processor that can be considered as a comparison is the Intel Xeon Gold 6240. The Xeon Gold 6240 has a higher base clock speed of 3.10GHz, and a higher turbo boost speed of 3.7GHz and it’s built on the Cascade Lake-SP architecture. It also has a higher TDP of 150W, and more cores, with 24 cores and 48 threads.
When comparing processors, it’s important to remember that the best option for a particular application will depend on a variety of factors, including the specific workload, the system’s memory and storage configuration, and the power and thermal constraints of the environment.
It’s worth noting that the Xeon 2640 V3 is an older processor, released in Q4’14, and it’s based on the Haswell-EP architecture. Newer processors such as Xeon Scalable processors, based on Skylake-SP and Ice lake-SP architecture, have been released and are available in the market, they offer improved performance, security and power efficiency features.
