Intel Xeon 7040 dual-core server processor
The Intel Xeon 7040 is a dual-core processor built for server platforms that use the 604-pin Micro-FCPGA socket. It runs at a clock speed of 3.0 GHz with a 667 MHz front-side bus and 4 MB of L2 cache. This unit is intended for technicians maintaining or upgrading legacy rack-mounted systems.
Socket 604 Micro-FCPGA compatibility requirement
Installation requires a motherboard equipped with a 604-pin Micro-FCPGA socket and a chipset that supports a 667 MHz front-side bus. Builders working with newer LGA sockets or different bus architectures cannot use this processor. It is also unsuitable for desktop or workstation boards that lack the specific server-class socket and voltage regulation.
Highlights
- Dual-core Xeon performance at 3.0 GHz
- 4 MB L2 cache accelerates data access
- 667 MHz front-side bus for fast throughput
- 604-pin micro-FCPGA socket fits compatible boards

Questions about this item
What does the 3.0 GHz clock speed mean for server workloads?
The 3.0 GHz dual-core Xeon 7040 runs at that frequency per core, giving consistent throughput for single-threaded server tasks and legacy applications.
What does the 667 MHz front-side bus cap in practice?
The 667 MHz FSB limits peak data transfer between the Xeon 7040 and the chipset, so memory bandwidth and I/O scaling top out at that rate.
