18-Core Xeon Server Processor

This Intel Xeon E7-8880 v3 is an 18-core processor built for multi-socket server platforms. It operates at a base frequency of 2.30GHz with a 45MB L3 cache. The part uses the FCLGA2011 socket interface and carries a 150W thermal design power.

Suited For Dense Compute Workloads

This CPU fits environments needing high core counts within a four-socket compatible design. Buyers needing single-thread speed or lower power envelopes should evaluate other options. Systems requiring different socket interfaces cannot use this part.

18 Cores Decide Socket Fit

The eighteen processing cores define the throughput ceiling for parallel tasks. The FCLGA2011 socket requirement determines motherboard compatibility. Verify your platform supports this specific socket before purchase.

Questions about this item

Does the FCLGA2011 socket on this Xeon E7-8880 v3 require a specific cooler mounting pattern?

The processor uses the FCLGA2011 socket which uses the standard 80 mm square mounting pattern for compatible coolers.

What is the correct orientation step when installing this 18 core processor into the FCLGA2011 socket?

Align the notches on the processor edges with the socket keys and lower it gently without forcing; the triangle mark indicates pin 1 orientation.

When should the thermal interface material be replaced on this 150W part?

Replace the thermal paste whenever the cooler is removed or if temperatures rise above normal operating ranges after extended use.
