Intel Xeon E-2488 8-core server processor

The Intel Xeon E-2488 is an 8-core, 16-thread server CPU running at 3.2 GHz with 24 MB cache. It fits the FCLGA1700 socket and is supplied as an OEM unit for integration into compatible server platforms.

Suited for entry-level server workloads

This processor suits administrators building single-socket servers for web hosting, file services or light virtualisation. It is not for buyers who need higher core counts, larger cache pools or multi-socket scalability beyond a single CPU configuration.

24 MB cache and 16 threads for parallel tasks

The 24 MB cache and 16 threads comfortably handle concurrent virtual machines, container workloads and multi-threaded applications. Performance headroom diminishes when workloads demand sustained all-core frequencies above the base clock or require memory bandwidth beyond dual-channel limits.

Questions about this item

Will my motherboard with an FCLGA1700 socket accept this Xeon E-2488 processor?

Yes, the processor uses the FCLGA1700 socket, so it fits motherboards built for that socket.

Does the Xeon E-2488 fit in the same FCLGA1700 socket as older Intel server CPUs I might keep?

The E-2488 requires an FCLGA1700 socket; older Intel server CPUs use different sockets and will not share the same board.

How can I confirm the 8-core Xeon E-2488 is running at its 3.2 GHz base frequency after installation?

Check the CPU frequency in the BIOS hardware monitor or an OS utility such as lscpu; it should report 3.2 GHz at idle.
