Description
Intel Xeon E5-2695 v3 SR1XG 14-core 2.30GHz CPU with 35MB cache. Powerful LGA2011-3 processor for servers, virtualization, data centers, and enterprise workloads.
The Intel Xeon E5-2695 v3 (SR1XG) is a high-performance server processor designed for enterprise servers, virtualization clusters, and mission-critical workloads. Part of Intel’s Haswell-EP family, it combines energy efficiency with excellent core density to handle the most demanding data center applications.
Featuring 14 cores and 28 threads with Hyper-Threading Technology, the Xeon E5-2695 v3 runs at a 2.30GHz base clock speed and boosts up to 3.30GHz with Intel Turbo Boost. With a 35MB Intel Smart Cache and support for DDR4-2133 ECC Registered memory (quad-channel), this processor ensures stability, reliability, and fast data handling across enterprise workloads.
Built for the LGA2011-3 socket and Intel C610 chipset platforms, the E5-2695 v3 supports dual-socket scalability (2S), allowing up to 28 cores per system for exceptional performance density. With advanced features such as Intel AVX2, AES New Instructions, and virtualization extensions (VT-x, VT-d, EPT), it is well-suited for virtualization, HPC, and large-scale databases.
Trusted in enterprise platforms from Dell, HP, Lenovo, and Supermicro, the Xeon E5-2695 v3 is a proven choice for organizations needing a balance of performance, scalability, and efficiency in their IT infrastructure.
