V2 is the second iteration of a specific model line, NOT a single silicon generation. The rack SR630 V2 / SR650 V2 are 3rd Gen Xeon 'Ice Lake' (DDR4-3200, PCIe 4.0) — today's refurb sweet spot: modern enough for current OS/hypervisor support, cheap enough to buy in volume. The edge SE360 V2 instead carries a Xeon D-2700 SoC. Always read the platform line, not just the 'V2' badge.
