HPE Xeon X5675 processor upgrade
This refurbished HPE 638315-B21 processor upgrade adds a hexa-core Intel Xeon X5675 running at 3.06 GHz to compatible Hewlett-Packard servers. It targets administrators refreshing ML350 G6 ProLiant systems who need additional cores for virtualization or database workloads without replacing the entire platform.
Replaces earlier dual-core
The jump from a dual-core or quad-core 5600-series processor to this six-core model is worthwhile when thread-heavy applications such as virtualization hosts or database engines exceed the core count of the original CPU. Servers already running a six-core 5600-series part at similar clock speeds will not see a meaningful uplift.
12 MB L3 cache and 6.40 GT/s interconnect
The 12 MB L3 cache and 6.40 GT/s QuickPath Interconnect provide headroom for moderate multi-threaded workloads and memory-intensive tasks. The 95 W thermal design power and 32 nm process limit scaling beyond heavily threaded compute or modern instruction-set dependent applications where newer architectures would be required.

Questions about this item
What server socket does the X5675 processor use?
The X5675 installs into a Socket B LGA-1366 socket on compatible Hewlett-Packard server boards.
How do I install the processor upgrade correctly?
Align the notches on the processor with the socket keys, place it gently without force, then close the retention lever fully to secure the 1366-pin package.
What cooling capacity is required for the 95 W TDP?
The server heatsink and fan assembly must be rated to dissipate at least 95 W and keep the case temperature at or below 81.3 °C.
