Collection: Intel Xeon E5-2600 Processors
The Intel Xeon E5-2600 family powered the most widely deployed dual socket servers of the 2012 to 2016 era and remains the highest volume upgrade CPU in the refurbished market. The family spans four generations: the original Sandy Bridge parts (V1), Ivy Bridge (V2), Haswell (V3), and Broadwell (V4), moving from 8 cores and DDR3 memory to 22 cores and DDR4 along the way.
V1 and V2 processors drop into LGA2011 platforms, while V3 and V4 use LGA2011-3, so the version suffix is the single most important detail when matching a CPU to your server. Browse the version collections below to stay within your platform, and use the sSpec code on your existing chip for an exact match.
Every E5-2600 series processor here is certified refurbished, tested before shipment, and backed by a 1 year warranty. These are the go to parts for adding cores to virtualization hosts, filling second sockets, and reviving proven dual socket platforms at low cost.
