Intel® Xeon™ E5-1603 v4

The Intel Xeon E5-1603 v4 is a server processor with 4 cores and 4 threads, built on the Broadwell architecture. It launched in Jun 2016. A 10-MB L3 cache backs the cores (2.8 MB per core). It supports DDR4 memory. It uses the FCLGA2011-3 socket. Rated TDP is 140 W.

The Intel Xeon E5-1603 v4 scores 1,753 in single-core performance and 4,674 in multi-core performance (PassMark CPU Mark ratings). From those two ratings Feex computes 2,862 for overall performance, 5,492 for productivity performance, 5,726 for creator performance, 4,499 for engineering performance and 6,428 for gaming performance. Its multi-core throughput works out to 1,169 per core, 1,169 per thread and 33 per watt. Its computed efficiency index is 242. Its performance index is 35, so its overall performance is 65% below the Intel Core i5-12400 (index 100). Each bar shows the score as a share of a reference ceiling, which is the larger of the 99th-percentile score across the Feex CPU database and a fixed baseline.

Scores for individual PassMark CPU Mark test categories. Higher is better. These are measured test scores, not computed from the single-core and multi-core ratings.

In the individual workload tests the Intel Xeon E5-1603 v4 scores 12,682 in integer math, 11,431 in floating-point math, 64,397 in compression, 1,113 in cryptography, 461 in physics simulation, 5,300 in vector SIMD, 42 in the prime sieve and 8,329 in sorting. Higher is better. Compared with the Intel Core i5-12400, it is 78% below in integer math, 75% below in floating-point math, 72% below in compression, 90% below in cryptography, 58% below in physics simulation, 66% below in vector SIMD, 37% below in the prime sieve and 63% below in sorting. Each bar shows the score as a share of that workload's reference ceiling, the larger of the 99th-percentile score across CPUs with a recorded value and a fixed baseline.

The Intel Xeon E5-1603 v4 has 4 physical cores and runs 4 logical threads. It does not use a hybrid performance and efficiency core layout. It does not support simultaneous multithreading, so its thread count equals its core count. It runs at a base clock of 2.80 GHz.

The Intel Xeon E5-1603 v4 is a server processor, belongs to the Intel Xeon E5 family and uses the Broadwell architecture. It launched in Jun 2016.

The Intel Xeon E5-1603 v4 has 256 KB of L1 cache, 1 MB of L2 cache and 10 MB of L3 cache. That adds up to about 11.3 MB of cache, or 2.81 MB per core. Each core has 256 KB of private L2 cache.

The Intel Xeon E5-1603 v4 has a 3-level cache hierarchy: L1 at 256 KB, L2 at 1 MB and L3 at 10 MB. L3 is the largest level and makes up about 89% of the cache listed here.

The Intel Xeon E5-1603 v4 supports DDR4 memory and runs memory at up to 2,133 MT/s. It does not support DDR5 and LPDDR memory.

The Intel Xeon E5-1603 v4 uses the FCLGA2011-3 socket.

The Intel Xeon E5-1603 v4 has a rated TDP of 140 W.
