Intel · Xeon E5 · 2012 · LGA2011
The Intel Xeon E5-1650 is a server processor with 6 cores, released in 2012 at an MSRP of $583. It is part of the Xeon E5 lineup, using the Xeon E5 platform, and fits the LGA2011 socket. Internally, it is built on the "Sandy Bridge-E" architecture. Thanks to Intel Hyper-Threading, each core can handle two instruction streams simultaneously, yielding a total of 12 threads for improved parallelism. The Xeon E5-1650 has a base clock of 3.2 GHz and can boost up to 3.8 GHz depending on workload and thermal headroom. Intel manufactures the "Sandy Bridge-E" silicon on a 32nm process node. This processor supports DDR3 memory across 4 channels, up to 64GB total, with ECC support standard for data integrity in server workloads. It supports both single-socket (1P) and dual-socket (2P) configurations, with 40 lanes of PCIe 3.0 available for storage, networking and accelerators. With a TDP of 130W, the Xeon E5-1650 sits in a typical power envelope for a modern desktop CPU. The cache hierarchy consists of no dedicated of L1, no dedicated of L2, and 12MB of L3 cache.
2nd Gen Xeon E5 on the LGA2011 HEDT/server platform — Intel's workstation and dual-socket server tier of this era.
