Intel Xeon E5-2430 Hexa-Core Processor - 2.2 GHz - LGA1356 - 15MB Cache - 95W TDP

Intel Xeon E5-2430 Hexa-Core Processor brings balanced server performance with a 2.2 GHz base frequency and proven Intel Xeon E5 Family reliability.

This Xeon E5-2430 (LGA1356) is designed for server and workstation use, offering six physical cores and 12 threads through Intel Hyper-Threading to handle concurrent workloads with efficiency.

With a base clock of 2.2 GHz and Turbo Boost up to 2.7 GHz, the processor provides responsive performance for virtualized environments and multi-threaded applications. The 15 MB L3 Smart Cache reduces memory latency for frequent data access.

The E5-2430 supports triple-channel DDR3 memory at 800/1066/1333 MHz and ECC, with up to 375 GB of internal memory supported and a maximum memory bandwidth of 32 GB/s, making it well suited for memory-intensive server tasks.

Built on a 32 nm process and rated at 95 W TDP, this CPU balances performance and power consumption. It includes advanced Intel technologies such as VT-x, VT-d, AES-NI, Turbo Boost, Enhanced SpeedStep, Execute Disable Bit, and thermal monitoring for robust security and manageability.

Connectivity and expansion are supported via a single QPI link at 7.2 GT/s, 24 PCIe lanes (version 3.0), and scalability to dual-socket (S2S) configurations for higher-density deployments.

Common use cases include small to medium enterprise servers like the HP ProLiant DL360e G8, virtualization hosts, database servers, application servers, and compute nodes where reliability and multi-thread throughput matter.

Key benefits at a glance:

• 6 cores / 12 threads with 2.2–2.7 GHz performance
• 15 MB L3 Smart Cache and DDR3 triple-channel ECC support
• 95 W TDP with Intel virtualization and security features
