  • 21 MB cache reduces memory latency for large datasets
  • E5-2600 v2 architecture fits existing HPE server sockets
  • Refurbished unit validated for reliable data-centre deployment

Refurbished Xeon E5-2670 v2 processor upgrade

This refurbished HPE processor upgrade adds a ten-core Xeon E5-2670 v2 running at 2.50 GHz to compatible servers. It is supplied as a spare part for maintenance or capacity expansion in existing HPE systems. The unit carries manufacturer part number 718057-L21 and belongs to the E5-2600 v2 product series.

Suited for HPE server maintenance, not new builds

This part suits IT teams replacing a failed CPU or adding a second processor to a supported HPE ProLiant server already qualified for the E5-2600 v2 family. It is not for builders assembling a new platform, for users needing a different core count or clock speed, or for any system outside the validated HPE compatibility list.

Ten cores at 2.50 GHz defines the upgrade

The decisive specification is the ten-core design operating at 2.50 GHz, which determines whether the processor matches the performance envelope and socket requirements of the target server. Verify the exact model 718057-L21 against your server maintenance guide before ordering.

Questions about this item

What socket does the HPE 718057-L21 Xeon E5-2670 v2 require for installation?

The processor is designed as a server upgrade for compatible HPE systems; verify your server's service guide to confirm the correct socket and supported processor list before fitting.

What is the correct orientation step when seating the HPE 718057-L21 Xeon E5-2670 v2 in the socket?

Align the triangle marker on the processor substrate with the matching indicator on the socket, lower it evenly without force, then secure the retention lever fully to avoid bent pins or incomplete contact.

When should the thermal paste be renewed on the HPE 718057-L21 Xeon E5-2670 v2?

Replace the thermal interface material whenever the heatsink is removed or if temperatures rise under sustained load; clean the old compound completely before applying a fresh, pea-sized dot.
