Intel Xeon E5-2660 20M Cache 2.20GHz 8 Core 16 Threads Processor

The Intel BX80621E52660 is a Xeon E5-2660 processor made for servers that need dependable, around-the-clock performance. It brings eight physical cores and sixteen threads to the table, so it can juggle many tasks at once without slowing down. A base clock of 2.20 GHz delivers consistent power, while Intel Turbo Boost lifts speeds to 3.00 GHz whenever the workload spikes, helping critical applications stay responsive.

With 20 MB of Smart Cache, frequently accessed data is kept close to the cores, cutting wait times and improving overall throughput. The chip supports up to 384 GB of DDR3 memory, giving administrators plenty of headroom for virtualization stacks, large in-memory databases, or data analytics jobs. Forty PCI Express 3.0 lanes open the door to high-bandwidth network cards, NVMe storage, or multiple GPUs, so the system can grow alongside shifting project demands.

This processor fits motherboards that use the FCLGA2011 socket and draws just 95 W. That combination lets you build dense, power-efficient racks without sacrificing performance. Whether you are consolidating several virtual machines onto one host, running a private cloud, or maintaining a database that serves hundreds of concurrent users, the Xeon E5-2660 helps keep operations smooth and predictable.

From small-business servers handling daily workloads to enterprise clusters crunching real-time data, the Intel BX80621E52660 gives IT teams a reliable foundation they can scale and trust.
