Intel® Xeon™ E5-2670 v2

The Intel Xeon E5-2670 v2 is a server processor with 10 cores and 20 threads, built on the Ivy Bridge architecture. It launched in Jul 2013. Clocks run from 2.5 GHz base to 3.3 GHz boost. A 25-MB L3 cache backs the cores (2.8 MB per core). It addresses DDR3 memory up to 768 GB across 4 channels. The chip drops into the FCLGA2011 socket and exposes PCIe 3.0 (40 lanes). Rated TDP is 115 W. Notable platform capabilities: Extended Page Tables (EPT).

The Intel Xeon E5-2670 v2 scores 1,620 in single-core performance and 11,277 in multi-core performance (PassMark CPU Mark ratings). From those two ratings Feex computes 4,274 for overall performance, 9,598 for productivity performance, 9,118 for creator performance, 11,911 for engineering performance and 7,679 for gaming performance. Its multi-core throughput works out to 1,128 per core, 564 per thread and 98 per watt. Its computed efficiency index is 399. Its performance index is 53, so its overall performance is 47% 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 E5-2670 v2 scores 45,299 in integer math, 22,920 in floating-point math, 207,561 in compression, 3,418 in cryptography, 647 in physics simulation, 8,924 in vector SIMD, 49 in the prime sieve and 27,376 in sorting. Higher is better. Compared with the Intel Core i5-12400, it is 23% below in integer math, 50% below in floating-point math, 9% below in compression, 70% below in cryptography, 41% below in physics simulation, 42% below in vector SIMD, 27% below in the prime sieve and 21% above 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 E5-2670 v2 has 10 physical cores and runs 20 logical threads. It runs 2 threads per core. It runs at a base clock of 2.50 GHz and boosts up to 3.30 GHz.
