Questions about this item
Will the 2.6 GHz Xeon E5-2670 run with the DDR3 1600 memory I already have installed in my X3500 M4?
Yes, the integrated memory controller is specified for DDR3 1600 speed, matching the modules used in that server platform.
How can I confirm the processor is recognised correctly after fitting it into the FCLGA2011 socket?
Check the BIOS POST screen or system-management firmware; it should display the Xeon E5-2670 model with 8 cores, 20 MB L3 cache and 2.6 GHz clock speed.
