About the Intel Xeon E5-2680 v4 CPU
The Intel Xeon E5-2680 v4 is a 14-core (28-thread) processor built for the server CPU market. The Xeon E5-2680 v4 is compatible with Socket 2011 LGA motherboards.
Memory and Cache
In terms of cache, the Xeon E5-2680 v4 has multiple levels of cache. Its L1 cache, which is the smallest and fastest, is 448 KB in size, providing rapid access to crucial instructions. Its L2 cache, at 3.5 MB, is larger but slower than the L1. Its L3 cache, a shared resource among the CPU's cores, has a capacity of 35 MB.
Cores and Clock Speeds
The Xeon E5-2680 v4 features 14 total cores which can process 28 threads simultaneously. The multi-threading capability allows the CPU to execute multiple computational tasks in parallel. The base clock speed of the CPU is 2400.0 MHz, and it can boost up to 3300.0 MHz under heavy workloads. Higher clock speeds result in better performance for the same microarchitecture.
Integrated Graphics
The Xeon E5-2680 v4 does not include an integrated graphics solution. A dedicated graphics card will be required if you require a monitor with your computer.
Benchmark Performance
The Xeon E5-2680 v4 has the 173rd best 3DMark 11 Performance Physics score among the 721 benchmarked CPUs in our database. It achieves 35.27% of the performance of the best benchmarked CPU, the AMD Ryzen 9 7950X3D.
About the Intel Xeon E5-2680 CPU
The Intel Xeon E5-2680 is a 8-core (16-thread) processor built for the server CPU market. It launched in Q1 2012. It is part of Intel's Xeon E5 lineup, which is based on the Sandy Bridge-EP microarchitecture. The E5-2680 is compatible with Intel Socket 2011 motherboards and is fabricated on Intel's 32 nm manufacturing process.
Memory and Cache
