Xeon E5630 Details

For server and workstation users requiring reliable multi-threaded performance from a well-established platform, the Intel Xeon E5630 remains a viable option despite its age. Launched in March 2010, this processor belongs to the Westmere-EP family and is built on a 32 nm process, featuring 1.17 billion transistors across a 239 mm² die. It is designed for the Socket 1366 platform and supports dual-processor (SMP) configurations, making it suitable for environments where redundancy and scalability are critical.

The Xeon E5630 is a quad-core processor with a base frequency of 2.53 GHz, capable of boosting to 2.8 GHz under load. With Intel Hyper-Threading enabled, it effectively delivers eight threads, enhancing its ability to handle concurrent workloads. It includes a substantial 11.444 MiB L3 cache, which helps maintain performance in memory-intensive applications. The processor operates at a TDP of 80 W, requiring adequate cooling solutions in densely packed server environments.

Memory support includes DDR3 with a triple-channel configuration, and ECC memory is supported, ensuring data integrity in mission-critical applications. The processor supports PCIe Gen 2 for peripheral connectivity and includes a range of instruction set extensions such as SSE4.2, VT-x, and TXT, which contribute to virtualization and security capabilities. However, it lacks integrated graphics, meaning a discrete GPU is necessary for any display output.

In benchmark testing, the Xeon E5630 achieves an Overall Score of 4358, ranking #1458 out of 2060 processors, with a Singlecore Score of 4297 (#1492) and a Multicore Score of 4449 (#1325). While it outperforms several modern low-power and mobile processors like the Pentium Gold 4415Y and Athlon Silver 3050U, it trails behind most contemporary CPUs. Its multicore performance is relatively strong compared to its single-core output, indicating better scaling in multi-threaded workloads.

As of March 2026, the Xeon E5630 serves as a legacy component, best suited for older server platforms or non-demanding workloads where cost-effective performance is prioritized over cutting-edge technology. It remains a practical choice in environments where upgrade cycles are extended and stability is paramount.
