Intel Xeon 5120 1.86 GHz switch module

Intel Xeon 5120 dual-core processor

The Intel Xeon 5120 is a dual-core processor operating at 1.86 GHz with a 4 MB L2 cache and a 1066 MHz front-side bus. It uses the LGA 771 socket and is built on a 65 nm process with a 65 W thermal design power. This module suits server and workstation builders who need a reliable dual-core Xeon for compatible platforms.

Sustained-load thermal behaviour

Under continuous workloads the 65 W TDP defines the steady-state heat output that the cooling solution must dissipate. The 65 nm process helps maintain stable frequencies during extended compute tasks without exceeding the rated thermal envelope. Builders requiring higher core counts or newer instruction sets should evaluate alternative processors.
