Intel Xeon E5 v4 Processors

Key takeaways

  • 1,518 listings match this collection right now.
  • E5 v4 is the Broadwell generation, and its top parts hold the same 145 watt ceiling as v3 despite the added cores, so a v3-rated chassis has headroom for the upgrade.
  • The top v4 part reaches 22 cores per socket, up from 18 cores on the top v3 part, the main reason to pick v4 once the board supports it.
  • Broadwell also grew L3 cache to 55MB on the top v4 part, up from 45MB on the top v3 part, more cache per core alongside the higher core count.

Xeon E5 v4 is the Broadwell generation on socket LGA2011-3, the last E5 line before Xeon Scalable. It is the processor upgrade path for Dell PowerEdge 13G and HPE ProLiant Gen9 servers, which shipped with E5 v3 and accept v4 with a BIOS update.

How to choose server processors

The socket has to match the board before anything else matters, and multi-socket systems must be populated with identical processor models. Xeon Scalable tiers (Bronze, Silver, Gold, Platinum) differ in core count, socket support and memory speed; the older E5 line is split by version (v2 on LGA2011, v3 and v4 on LGA2011-3). Processors ship as the bare part: heatsinks and carriers are platform specific and ordered separately.
