Dell Intel Xeon E5-2620 v4 8-Core Server Processor

Dell Xeon E5-2620 v4

The Dell Xeon E5-2620 v4 is an Intel Broadwell-EP 8-core server processor for Dell PowerEdge 13th Generation servers. With 8 cores, 16 threads, and a 3.0GHz max turbo frequency, it provides solid multi-threaded performance for virtualisation, database, and general-purpose enterprise server workloads across South African business environments.

8-Core Broadwell-EP Performance

The Dell Xeon E5-2620 v4 delivers 8 cores and 16 threads from Intel’s Broadwell-EP microarchitecture. It offers a good balance of multi-threaded throughput and efficient power consumption at an 85W TDP. It is suitable for mid-range virtualisation hosts running multiple virtual machines and Microsoft SQL Server deployments. South African businesses expanding or upgrading their Dell PowerEdge 13G server infrastructure will find it a cost-effective option. The 20MB Smart Cache helps keep frequently accessed data close to the processor cores, reducing latency for data-intensive workloads. The dual-socket capability also allows pairing two E5-2620 v4 processors in a single server for up to 16 cores and 32 threads per system.

DDR4 Memory and Platform Support

The Dell Xeon E5-2620 v4 supports DDR4 ECC registered memory and dual-socket configurations via Intel QPI interconnect. For South African organisations with existing Dell PowerEdge 13G server infrastructure, this processor provides a cost-effective upgrade path. It increases compute capacity without replacing the entire server platform. This makes it a smart choice for businesses that need more virtualisation density from their existing hardware investment.

Dell PowerEdge 13G Compatibility

The Dell Xeon E5-2620 v4 uses the LGA2011-3 socket and is qualified for Dell PowerEdge R630, R730, R730xd, T630, and other PowerEdge 13G platforms. Supplied as a Dell OEM CUS Kit, it is tested and validated for these server platforms. For full compatibility and firmware update guidance, visit the Dell official website.
