Intel Xeon E5-2678 v3
Benchmarks & Specs

The Intel Xeon E5-2678 v3 is a processor originally designed for professional environments. It belongs to the Haswell E architecture and was manufactured using the proven 22 nm process. What distinguishes this chip are its 12 physical cores and 24 threads. That was a remarkable feature for its time.

This configuration allows it to continue to efficiently process many parallelized tasks. It shows its strengths especially in compute-intensive applications that benefit from many cores. Another advantage is the generous 30 MB L3 cache, complemented by 3 MB L2 cache. These large caches help to quickly provide frequently used data.

It offers a maximum memory bandwidth of 68 GB/s. In addition, it supports PCIe 3.0, which was the standard at the time. We know that such processors were built for longevity and consistent performance. The Xeon E5-2678 v3 remains a solid foundation for workstations or specialized servers. It also continues to provide a reliable base for demanding projects.

• 12 cores and 24 threads for parallelized tasks
