Processor upgrade for HP BL490c G7
This refurbished Xeon X5675 processor upgrade targets administrators refreshing the HP BL490c G7 Proliant server. The six-core unit operates at 3.06 GHz and draws a thermal design power of 95 W. It fits the Socket B LGA-1366 interface already present in the supported blade.
Socket B LGA-1366 integration
The processor slots directly into the existing LGA-1366 socket on the BL490c G7 system board, requiring no additional adapter or board revision. Its 32 nm process technology and 95 W envelope leave thermal headroom within the blade's original cooling design. The 6.40 GT/s QuickPath Interconnect maintains the intended processor-to-chipset bandwidth.
12 MB L3 cache and six cores
Twelve megabytes of shared L3 cache and six execution cores handle parallel workloads such as virtualization hosts or database threads. The 1.50 MB L2 cache feeds each core with low-latency data. Workloads demanding more than six threads or larger cache pools will exceed the capacity of this upgrade.

Questions about this item
At what temperature does the X5675 hit its thermal limit during sustained load?
The processor thermal specification is 81.3 °C (178.3 °F), which is the maximum case temperature under sustained use.
What power draw and heat output should I expect when the X5675 runs all day?
The chip has a 95 W thermal design power, so sustained operation will draw up to 95 W and require cooling rated for that heat load.
Which server must I already own for this processor upgrade to work?
The upgrade is compatible only with the Hewlett-Packard BL490c G7 ProLiant server series.
