About This Product
Overview
The Intel Xeon E5-2630 v3 is a server-class processor built for systems that use the LGA2011-3 socket. With 8 cores and 16 threads, it is suited to workloads that benefit from balanced multi-threaded processing, including virtualization, business applications, and general-purpose server use. Its 2.40GHz base clock and 3.20GHz turbo clock provide flexible performance for everyday compute tasks, while the 20MB Smart Cache helps support efficient data access during active workloads. This processor is also listed as compatible with Dell R630, Dell R730, and HPE Gen9 servers, making it a useful option for supported enterprise environments that need a replacement or upgrade CPU.
Performance & Scalability
Designed for server platforms, the Xeon E5-2630 v3 offers a strong mix of core count, thread count, and platform support for scalable deployments. The 85W TDP helps keep power requirements within a practical range for compatible systems, while DDR4-1866 memory support and PCIe 3.0 compatibility allow the processor to work within modern server architectures. This makes it a sensible choice for administrators looking to maintain or expand an existing system without changing the underlying platform. For environments that rely on dependable CPU resources across multiple tasks, the E5-2630 v3 can help support consistent performance in a wide range of enterprise use cases.
Storage Flexibility
While this product is a CPU rather than a storage device, its platform support can influence overall system flexibility. In compatible servers, the processor works alongside DDR4 memory and PCIe 3.0 expansion, which can support storage controllers, SSDs, and other connected hardware used in business systems. That makes it a practical component for server builds where storage performance depends on the broader platform design. If you are maintaining a Dell R630, R730, or HPE Gen9 server, this CPU can help keep the system aligned with the hardware configuration needed for your existing storage and expansion setup.
Why Choose This Product?
The Intel Xeon E5-2630 v3 is a straightforward choice for buyers who need a compatible server processor with documented specifications and broad enterprise platform support. It offers 8 cores, 16 threads, and a 20MB cache in a socketed format that fits LGA2011-3 systems. For IT teams, resellers, and repair projects, it can be a practical replacement part for supported Dell and HPE servers. Its combination of DDR4 memory support, PCIe 3.0 compatibility, and moderate power draw makes it well suited to maintaining serviceable server hardware without unnecessary complexity.
About this processor
Intel Xeon E5-2630 v3, an 8 core, 16 thread LGA2011-3 processor at 2.40GHz with 20MB cache, for Dell R630, R730 and HPE Gen9. Tested and stocked in Doha, delivered across Qatar within a day.
The Xeon E5-2630 v3 was the volume processor of Intel's E5 v3 family, the eight core Haswell part that most 13th generation servers shipped with. Eight cores and 16 threads at a 2.40GHz base and 3.20GHz turbo, 20MB of cache, DDR4-1866 memory support and an 85W rating give a balanced, cool running processor. It is named as compatible with the Dell PowerEdge R630 and R730 and with HPE Gen9 servers.
Buyers in Qatar use this refurbished processor to add a second socket to a single processor server, or to replace a failed part with an exact match so an existing pair stays identical. ServerDove keeps it in Doha stock as one of the most requested v3 parts.

Part numbers and identification
Buyers search for "E5-2630 v3", "2630v3" and "Xeon E5-2630v3".
| SKU | CPU-INTEL-E5-2630V3 |
| Model | Intel Xeon E5-2630 v3 |
| Family | Xeon E5 v3, Haswell, mainstream |
Specification
Memory speed is the notable limit: v3 processors of this class run DDR4 at 1866 MT/s, so faster DIMMs bring no benefit until the processor is upgraded to a v4 part.
| Cores | 8 |
| Threads | 16 |
| Base clock | 2.40GHz |
| Turbo clock | 3.20GHz |
| Smart Cache | 20MB |
| Socket | LGA2011-3 |
| TDP | 85W |
| Memory support | DDR4-1866 |
| PCIe | PCIe 3.0, 40 lanes |
Its popularity is the point: an enormous number of servers shipped with this exact processor, so a second one is the cheapest way to double a server's cores, and a like for like replacement keeps a matched pair. Eight cores at 85W is easy to cool in any 1U chassis and adds little to the power bill.
Compatible servers
Named platforms for the 2630 v3 are below.
| Server | Generation | Note |
|---|---|---|
| Dell PowerEdge R630 | 13th generation Dell | Common factory fitment |
| Dell PowerEdge R730 | 13th generation Dell | Common factory fitment |
HPE ProLiant Gen9 servers are also named as compatible.
Installation
No firmware update is needed on a v3 era server. When adding a second processor, buy the same model and, ideally, the same stepping as the one fitted, and remember that the second socket needs its own heatsink and often its own fan or air shroud, which the vendor sold as a kit. Clean and re-paste the heatsink, torque the retention screws evenly, and populate the memory slots belonging to the new socket.
