Refurbished Xeon E5-4620 Processor Upgrade

This refurbished HPE 686847-B21 upgrades compatible servers with an Intel Xeon E5-4620 octa-core processor running at 2.20 GHz. It targets administrators who need to add processing capacity to existing E5-4600 family systems without purchasing new hardware. The part is sold as a standalone processor upgrade for supported HPE platforms.

Green PCB Server Component Build

The processor arrives on a green printed circuit board designed for the specific socket and mounting mechanism of qualified HPE servers. Installation follows the server manufacturer's service procedures for processor replacement. Proper seating and thermal interface application are required for reliable operation in the target chassis.

7.2 GT/s QuickPath Interconnect Speed

The decisive specification is the 7.2 GT/s QuickPath Interconnect link speed, which determines processor-to-processor and processor-to-chipset bandwidth. Systems requiring a different interconnect rate or a higher core frequency will not match this part. Verify the server's supported interconnect speed before ordering.

Questions about this item

What QuickPath Interconnect speed does the Xeon E5-4620 provide?

The processor runs a QuickPath Interconnect at 7.2 GT/s, which sets the practical bandwidth ceiling for socket-to-socket and socket-to-I/O traffic in an E5-4600 system.

What physical package and colour identify the 686847-B21 processor?

The part is a green-coloured LGA-package processor; the green substrate and standard Intel Xeon land-grid array dimensions are what you will see when you open the tray.

How is the Xeon E5-4620 installed in a compatible server?

Align the notches on the processor with the socket keys, lower it gently without forcing, close the load plate and engage the retention lever; the step often missed is verifying the socket release lever is fully latched before applying the heatsink.
