Intel Socket 1356
The Intel Xeon E5-2428L is a server/workstation processor with 6 cores, launched in May 2012. It is part of the Xeon E5 lineup, using the Sandy Bridge-EN architecture with Socket 1356. Thanks to Intel Hyper-Threading the core-count is effectively doubled, to 12 threads. To further increase overall system performance, up to two Xeon E5-2428L CPUs can work together in a multi-processor (SMP) configuration. Xeon E5-2428L has 15 MB of L3 cache and operates at 1800 MHz by default, but can boost up to 2000 MHz, depending on the workload. Intel is making the Xeon E5-2428L on a 32 nm production node using 1,270 million transistors. The multiplier is locked on Xeon E5-2428L, which limits its overclocking potential.
With a TDP of 60 W, the Xeon E5-2428L consumes typical power levels for a modern PC. Intel's processor supports DDR3 memory. ECC memory is supported, too, which is an important capability for mission-critical systems, to avoid data corruption. This processor lacks integrated graphics, you might need a graphics card.
Hardware virtualization is available on the Xeon E5-2428L, which greatly improves virtual machine performance. Additionally, IOMMU virtualization (PCI passthrough) is supported, so that guest virtual machines may directly use host hardware. Programs using Advanced Vector Extensions (AVX) can run on this processor, boosting performance for calculation-heavy applications.
