About this part
Refurbished Intel Xeon E5-2640 v3, an 8-core, 16-thread processor for LGA 2011-3 two-socket servers. The Xeon E5-2600 v3 series is Intel's Haswell-EP generation for the Grantley (C610) platform, with four DDR4 channels and 40 PCIe 3.0 lanes per CPU. It is an older platform that still earns its place in fleet capacity adds and lab builds.

Compatibility
This Haswell-EP part fits LGA 2011-3 Grantley boards only, not LGA 2011 (E5 v2) or LGA 3647 sockets. It holds memory to DDR4-1866 even with faster DIMMs. The R530 has 12 DIMM slots, not 24. At 90 W it runs on standard heatsinks. v3 and v4 cannot be mixed in one server. In a two-socket build, run a matched pair: the same SKU in both sockets. Browse matching parts for the Dell PowerEdge R730.
When to Choose This
The 2640 v3 adds 200 MHz over the E5-2630 v3 for 5 W more, a fair trade for file, print and light application servers. Like the 2630 v3, it holds memory to DDR4-1866. If you need faster cores at eight, the E5-2667 v3 runs 3.2 GHz base at 135 W; if you need more cores, the E5-2650 v3 gives 10 at 105 W.
