About the Intel Xeon E5-2697 v2 CPU
The Intel Xeon E5-2697 v2 is a 12-core (24-thread) processor built for the server CPU market. It launched in Q3 2013. It is part of Intel's Xeon E5 lineup, which is based on the Ivy Bridge-EP microarchitecture. The E5-2697 v2 is compatible with Intel Socket 2011 motherboards and is fabricated on Intel's 22 nm manufacturing process.
Memory and Cache
The Xeon E5-2697 v2 supports DDR3 memory and features a quad-channel memory controller, allowing it to utilize 4 memory modules simultaneously. In terms of cache, the Xeon E5-2697 v2 has multiple levels of cache. Its L1 cache, which is the smallest and fastest, is 64 KB in size, providing rapid access to crucial instructions. Its L2 cache, at 256 KB, is larger but slower than the L1. Its L3 cache, a shared resource among the CPU's cores, has a capacity of 30 MB.
Cores and Clock Speeds
The Xeon E5-2697 v2 features 12 total cores which can process 24 threads simultaneously. The multi-threading capability allows the CPU to execute multiple computational tasks in parallel. The base clock speed of the CPU is 2.7 GHz, and it can boost up to 3.5 GHz under heavy workloads. Higher clock speeds result in better performance for the same microarchitecture. The multiplier is locked, making it incapable of overclocking for pushing performance further.
Integrated Graphics
The Xeon E5-2697 v2 does not include an integrated graphics solution. A dedicated graphics card will be required if you require a monitor with your computer.
