Xeon E5-1630 v4 Details

For professionals and workstations requiring robust multi-threaded performance with enterprise-grade reliability, the Intel Xeon E5-1630 v4 stands as a capable processor from the Broadwell EP generation. Released in 2016, this CPU represents an older generation of Intel’s server-grade lineup, and while it no longer competes with today's modern high-performance chips, it remains relevant in legacy systems and cost-sensitive environments. Designed for the Grantley EP Workstation platform, it targets users in engineering, content creation, and virtualization workloads where consistent performance and ECC memory support are critical.

Built on Intel’s 14 nm Broadwell microarchitecture, the Xeon E5-1630 v4 features a 4-core, 8-thread design enabled by Hyper-Threading. It operates at a base clock of 3.7 GHz, with a turbo frequency of up to 4.0 GHz, allowing it to deliver strong single-threaded performance. The processor integrates 10 MiB of L3 cache and 1 MiB of L2 cache, providing efficient data access for memory-intensive applications. It supports up to 1.5 TB of DDR4 memory, with a maximum bandwidth of 5000 MT/s, and uses the LGA 2011-3 socket with a TDP of 140 W, indicating a high power draw suitable for well-cooled server or workstation chassis.

The Xeon E5-1630 v4 includes a range of enterprise features such as ECC memory support, Intel VT-x and VT-d virtualization, Intel TXT, and Intel vPro technology for remote management and security. It also supports advanced instruction sets including AVX2, FMA3, AES-NI, and BMI1/BMI2, making it suitable for scientific computing, encryption, and multimedia processing. The processor is compatible with the C610 Series chipset and supports up to 40 PCIe lanes, enabling expansion with high-speed storage and GPU options.

In benchmark testing, the Xeon E5-1630 v4 achieves an overall score of 5340, ranking #588 out of 2060 processors, with a single-core score of 5530 (#535) and a multicore score of 5056 (#598). These results indicate that while the CPU performs well in single-threaded tasks—outperforming many modern consumer chips—it is outpaced by current-generation processors in multi-threaded workloads. Its strongest performance category is single-core, where it ranks among mid-tier CPUs, but its multicore performance is notably weaker compared to newer multi-core designs.

As of March 2026, the Xeon E5-1630 v4 is best suited for legacy workstations, small-scale virtualization, or applications where ECC memory and enterprise features are more important than raw speed. It remains a practical choice for users upgrading older systems or managing workloads that don’t demand the latest performance improvements. While it lacks the efficiency and power of modern processors, its reliability and feature set ensure it still has a place in specific professional environments.
