About This Product
Overview
The Intel Xeon E5-2680 v4 is a server-class processor designed for systems that need dependable multi-core performance and broad platform compatibility. With 14 cores and 28 threads, it is well suited to workloads that benefit from parallel processing, including virtualization, multitasking, and general server operations. Its LGA2011-3 socket support makes it a practical choice for compatible enterprise and workstation motherboards, while the 35MB Smart Cache helps support efficient data access during sustained workloads. As part of the Xeon family, this CPU is aimed at environments where stability, consistent throughput, and compatibility with server hardware are important considerations.
Performance & Scalability
With a base clock of 2.40GHz and a turbo clock up to 3.30GHz, the Xeon E5-2680 v4 balances core count with responsive processing for a wide range of compute tasks. The 120W TDP reflects a processor built for higher-performance systems, and DDR4-2400 memory support helps align it with modern server memory configurations. PCIe 3.0 support also provides a flexible foundation for expansion cards and storage controllers in compatible builds. For organizations or users looking to extend the life of an existing LGA2011-3 platform, this processor offers a strong option for scaling CPU resources without changing the core platform architecture.
Storage Flexibility
Although this product is a CPU rather than a storage device, its PCIe 3.0 support can contribute to a more flexible system design when paired with compatible storage controllers, adapters, and expansion hardware. In server and workstation environments, that flexibility can be useful when building around SSDs, RAID solutions, or other performance-oriented storage setups. Combined with DDR4-2400 memory support, the processor helps create a balanced platform that can support data-heavy tasks and efficient system responsiveness. This makes it a suitable component for builds where storage performance is influenced by the broader platform capabilities.
Why Choose This Product?
The Intel Xeon E5-2680 v4 is a solid choice for buyers seeking a proven server CPU with a strong core count, broad compatibility, and enterprise-focused features. It is especially relevant for users maintaining or upgrading systems built around the LGA2011-3 socket, where replacing or expanding processing capability can improve overall workload handling. The combination of 14 cores, 28 threads, DDR4-2400 support, and PCIe 3.0 compatibility makes it a versatile option for virtualization hosts, application servers, and workstation builds that need reliable multi-threaded performance. For IT hardware resellers and system builders, it represents a practical component for compatible platforms.

Why Buy a Refurbished Products?
Refurbished enterprise servers offer enterprise-grade performance at a fraction of the new price.
Up to 70% Cost Savings
Refurbished R650xs units deliver identical hardware capability to new, at significantly lower upfront cost — freeing budget for CPUs, RAM, and storage.
Fully Tested & Verified
Every unit undergoes comprehensive hardware diagnostics before dispatch. POST tests, burn-in, memory checks, and power supply verification are standard.
Immediate Availability
Unlike new enterprise servers with lead times of weeks or months, refurbished stock is ready to ship within 24 hours of ordering.
Same Performance
The hardware inside the R650xs performs identically whether purchased new or refurbished. The 3rd Gen Xeon platform, PCIe Gen4, and iDRAC9 are unchanged.
