About this part
Refurbished Intel Xeon E5-2670 v3, a 12-core, 24-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 runs memory at up to DDR4-2133, stepping down at 3 DIMMs per channel. The R530 has 12 DIMM slots, not 24. At 120 W it stays on HPE's standard heatsink; the high-performance heatsink starts above 120 W. 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 2670 v3 is a common 12-core workhorse for virtualization hosts and mid-size databases, and an easy way to match an existing processor in a fleet. At 120 W it stays on standard heatsinks. The E5-2680 v3 is the same 12-core, 120 W class at 2.5 GHz, worth the step if clocks matter; the E5-2650L v3 trades clock for a 65 W envelope.
