Benchmarks & Specs

Last updated:
The Intel Xeon E7-8850 v2 was once a cornerstone for demanding server environments. It's built on the robust Ivy Bridge EX architecture. This model was specifically designed for businesses needing high reliability and scalability. This processor features a considerable Level 3 cache of 24 MB.

This large cache allows frequently used data to be processed very quickly. Memory connectivity also proved to be a strong point. With a maximum memory bandwidth of 51 GB/s, it moved large amounts of data efficiently. This chip was manufactured using the then-advanced 22 nm process. This contributed to good performance and supported energy efficiency.

Even today, these processors are found in specialized systems. They continue to provide a solid foundation for certain computing tasks. Especially in multi-processor configurations, it demonstrated its full performance. The design was geared towards continuous operation. A true specialist for data centers and mission-critical applications.
