Benchmarks & Specs

Last updated:
The Intel Xeon E-2278G is a processor that fully demonstrates its strengths in professional environments. It is based on the Coffee Lake S architecture and was manufactured using the proven 14 nm process. This provides a very solid foundation for demanding tasks, as we have often observed.

Its 8 cores and 16 threads enable remarkable multitasking performance. This is very advantageous for applications that benefit from many parallel processes. Additionally, the processor features integrated Intel UHD Graphics P630. This eliminates the need for a separate graphics card in many workstations.

This provides more flexibility when selecting other system components. The 16 MB L3 cache and PCIe 3.0 support ensure good data connectivity. Even today, this Xeon delivers reliable performance, especially for specialized tasks. It remains a proven choice for servers and professional workstations. Its robustness makes it a sensible long-term investment.

  • 8 Cores and 16 Threads
  • Integrated Intel UHD Graphics P630
  • High reliability for professional applications
