Overview
The Intel Xeon E5-2640 V3 offers 8 cores and 16 threads. Clocks run from 2.6GHz base to 3.4GHz boost. It drops into the LGA2011-3 socket with a 90W TDP — about 11.3W per core. 16MB of L3 cache helps in cache-sensitive games and workloads. Confirm motherboard socket compatibility before anything else, then size the cooler to the TDP.
Its $189.95 price tag places it squarely in mid-range territory. PlanMyPC's builder flags compatibility problems automatically and adds the part's price to your build total.
