Xeon E5-2695 v2 Details

Built on Intel's Ivy Bridge-EP architecture at a 22 nm process node, the Xeon E5-2695 v2 is a server-grade processor launched in September 2013. While now over a decade old, it remains notable for its robust multi-threaded performance and support for ECC memory, making it suitable for enterprise environments where reliability and memory integrity are critical. The processor is designed for Socket 2011 platforms and features a 12-core, 24-thread configuration enabled by Simultaneous Multithreading (SMT), allowing it to handle a wide range of workloads efficiently. With a base clock of 2.4 GHz and a turbo frequency of up to 3.2 GHz, it delivers strong performance for its time, especially in multi-threaded applications.

The Xeon E5-2695 v2 includes a substantial 28.61 MiB of L3 cache, which helps reduce memory latency and improve data throughput in compute-intensive scenarios. It supports DDR3 memory via a quad-channel interface, enabling high memory bandwidth essential for server and workstation tasks. Despite its power-hungry design—measured at a 115 W TDP—the processor is capable of handling demanding applications with adequate cooling. It lacks integrated graphics, meaning a discrete GPU is required for visual output, which is typical for server processors.

In terms of features, the Xeon E5-2695 v2 supports a wide array of instruction sets, including AVX, AVX2, AES-NI, and Intel's virtualization technologies such as VT-x and VT-d, which enhance virtual machine performance and enable hardware-assisted I/O virtualization. The processor also supports multi-socket configurations, allowing up to two CPUs to be used in a symmetric multiprocessing (SMP) setup, further boosting system scalability. These capabilities make it well-suited for virtualization, data center, and high-performance computing workloads.

Benchmark results show the Xeon E5-2695 v2 with an Overall Score of 4731, ranking #1080 out of 2060 processors, a Singlecore Score of 4501 (#1290 of 2060), and a Multicore Score of 5076 (#582 of 2060). Its multicore performance places it ahead of many modern consumer-grade CPUs, such as the Core i7-8700B and Core i7-7700T, highlighting its strength in parallel processing. However, its single-core performance trails behind current high-end desktop processors, which is expected given its age and architecture. In the broader context of the top 50 processors, the Xeon E5-2695 v2 is significantly outperformed by modern offerings like the Ryzen Threadripper PRO 9995WX and Core Ultra 9 285K, which are over 10 times more powerful in terms of overall performance.

As of March 2026, the Xeon E5-2695 v2 is best suited for legacy server systems, low-budget virtualization setups, or use cases where cost-effective, high-thread-count processing is more important than raw single-core speed. Its longevity and support for ECC memory make it a reliable choice for certain enterprise applications, though it is no longer competitive in modern computing environments.
