Server processor for data-centre upgrades

This Lenovo-supplied Xeon E5-2670 delivers eight cores running at 2.60 GHz for multi-threaded server workloads. The integrated memory controller operates with DDR3 1600 modules. The part carries IBM model number 94Y8589 and is sold in refurbished condition.

Suits administrators refreshing E5-2600 platforms

IT teams maintaining existing dual-socket servers that accept this specific processor will find a direct drop-in upgrade. Buyers building new systems or requiring higher core counts, different socket types or newer memory generations should evaluate other options.

DDR3 1600 memory controller speed decides fit

The on-package controller is rated for DDR3 1600 operation, so the motherboard and DIMM population must match that specification. Verify the platform documentation for 94Y8589 compatibility before purchase.

Questions about this item

Does the Lenovo 94Y8589 Xeon E5-2670 processor include a heatsink or thermal paste in the box?

The processor is supplied as a standalone unit; a compatible heatsink and thermal interface material must be sourced separately for installation.

Should I choose the E5-2670 2.6 GHz 8-core model or a different E5-2600 series variant for my workload?

Select the E5-2670 when your applications benefit from eight cores at 2.6 GHz; other E5-2600 models trade core count or frequency for different power envelopes.

How does the 2.6 GHz base clock translate to actual throughput once the CPU is installed in a DDR3 1600 server platform?

With eight cores running at 2.6 GHz and a DDR3 1600 memory controller, the processor delivers balanced compute and memory bandwidth for virtualisation and database tasks.
