Intel SR19L Xeon E5-4610 V2 8-Core Processor (Renewed)

The Intel Xeon E5-4610 V2 is a server-class processor from Intel's Ivy Bridge-EP family, built for demanding multi-socket environments where sustained throughput matters more than peak single-thread speed. With 8 cores, 16 threads, and a 16MB Smart Cache, it handles virtualization, database, and enterprise application workloads that benefit from high thread counts and large cache pools. The 7.2 GT/s QPI link ensures efficient data movement between sockets in two- or four-socket server configurations, which is where the E5-4600 V2 series is specifically designed to operate.

As a renewed processor, this unit provides a cost-effective path for organizations maintaining or expanding existing LGA 2011 server infrastructure. The 2.3 GHz base clock with a 2.7 GHz turbo ceiling is modest by modern standards, but remains adequate for workloads that parallelize well across many cores and sockets. It's a pragmatic choice for environments where replacing the entire server platform isn't justified, but additional processing capacity is needed. Buyers should verify motherboard and BIOS compatibility before purchasing, as firmware updates may be required to support V2-series Xeon processors.
