Benchmarks & Specs

Last updated:
The Intel Xeon E7-8880L v2 was once an outstanding solution for highly demanding servers. This processor was specifically designed for data centers. It was intended for mission-critical operations, where reliability and scalability are top priorities. It is based on the proven Ivy Bridge EX architecture and was manufactured using the 22 nm process.

With its 15 cores and 30 threads, it delivered very high multithreading performance. This was crucial for complex workloads. Think of large databases or extensive virtualization environments. The generous 38 MB Level-3 cache contributed significantly to fast data processing. This allowed large amounts of data to be processed extremely efficiently.

For companies that needed a robust IT infrastructure, this Xeon was an excellent choice. It offered a long-term stable base. Its design for continuous operation in multi-socket systems underscores its particular suitability. We found it remarkable how well it performed its tasks in highly available environments.

It provided a reliable foundation for demanding business applications.
