HPE Xeon E5-2650 v2 processor upgrade

This HPE 712726-B21 module upgrades a compatible server with an Intel Xeon E5-2650 v2 processor. It delivers eight cores running at 2.60 GHz with a 3.40 GHz turbo frequency. The 22 nm design includes 20 MB of L3 cache and 2 MB of L2 cache for demanding workloads.

Suited for HPE server refreshes, not new builds

This refurbished processor suits administrators refreshing existing HPE ProLiant servers that accept the E5-2600 v2 family. It is not for builders assembling new platforms, buyers needing a different core count or clock speed, or anyone without a qualified HPE server chassis and firmware support.

Eight cores at 2.60 GHz with 20 MB L3 cache

The octa-core configuration at 2.60 GHz base clock and 20 MB L3 cache determines whether this upgrade matches the performance envelope of the target application. Verify the server's supported processor list before purchase.
