Intel Xeon E5 E5-2696 V4 22-core LGA2011-3
The 22-core Broadwell-EP chip delivers strong multi-threaded throughput with a 55MB L3 cache, making it a cost-effective option for dense compute on the LGA2011-3 platform. It is functionally identical to the retail E5-2699 V4, offering the same 2.2GHz base and 3.6GHz boost clocks but was originally sold as an OEM-only part, which now provides a value advantage on the used market. This processor is best for homelab operators and small businesses upgrading dual-socket servers for virtualization or high-thread-count productivity workloads.
