Intel Xeon E3-1225 v5 4-Core 3.30GHz Server Processor

The Intel Xeon E3-1225 v5 has 4 cores and 4 threads, a 3.30GHz base clock with boost to 3.70GHz, 8MB of cache and a 80W TDP. Part of the Intel server line, it uses Socket 1151 and addresses up to 64GB of memory at 2133DDR4 / 1600DDR3.

With simultaneous multithreading enabled, it presents 4 threads to the operating system. Boost clocks apply when thermal and power headroom allow; the base clock is the sustained figure. Clean off old thermal compound and apply fresh paste when fitting it. A 80W processor needs a heatsink rated for its power, and higher-TDP parts may need the server’s high-performance heatsink. In most dual-socket servers the second processor also brings its own memory channels and expansion lanes into play. Its S-spec, SR2LJ, pins down the exact stepping. It suits general-purpose server duty on its platform. Pair it with an identical processor in dual-socket systems, and confirm the heatsink and BIOS support a 80W chip before installing.

As a certified refurbished part, it is inspected, bench-tested and function-checked by our Johannesburg team before release.
