Benchmarks & Specs

Last updated:
The Intel Atom C2530 is a processor, codenamed Avoton. It was specifically designed for microservers and networking devices. Its 22nm manufacturing process enabled remarkable energy efficiency. This was a crucial advantage for devices needing 24/7 operation. This chip offers four cores, providing a solid foundation for light server applications.

Its ability to handle multiple tasks simultaneously was appreciated. With 2 MB of L3 cache, it offered good support, even with repeated data access. The integration of PCIe 2.0 also allowed for flexible connectivity of expansion cards. The Intel Atom C2530 proved to be a reliable component. It was ideal in environments where low power consumption and stability were priorities.

We remember it as a well-thought-out solution for the lower server segment for its time. It represented a cost-effective option without compromising on basic server features. Even today, it still finds its niche in specific systems where its original strengths are still in demand.
  • High energy efficiency
  • Reliability for continuous operation
  • Four cores for light server applications
  • Flexible connectivity thanks to PCIe 2.0
