Eight-core Xeon processor for dense servers
The Intel Xeon E5-2667 v3 delivers eight cores at a base frequency of 3.20 GHz and a turbo frequency of 3.60 GHz. It uses a 22 nm process and fits the LGA 2011-v3 socket. The thermal design power is rated at 135 W.
Suits virtualised hosts needing high single-thread
This CPU fits workloads that benefit from fewer, faster cores such as lightly threaded databases or licence-constrained applications. Buyers who need more threads for heavy virtualisation density or higher aggregate throughput should look elsewhere.
20 MB L3 cache and 9.60 GT/s QuickPath Interconnect
The large shared L3 cache and high-speed interconnect reduce latency between cores and memory. These two specifications determine whether the processor matches the performance envelope of the target workload.

Questions about this item
Which motherboard socket is required for the Xeon E5-2667 v3?
The processor fits Socket LGA 2011-v3 and needs a compatible server motherboard with matching chipset.
Can the E5-2667 v3 run in a dual-socket board alongside an older Xeon E5-2600 v2?
No, the v3 series uses LGA 2011-v3 while v2 uses LGA 2011, so they cannot share the same board.
How do I confirm the 3.20 GHz base clock and 3.60 GHz turbo are active after installation?
Check BIOS or an OS tool such as lscpu; it should report 8 cores, 20 MB L3 cache and the rated frequencies.
