Intel Xeon E5-2637 v4 — High-frequency Broadwell Server CPU

The Intel Xeon E5-2637 v4 is a high-frequency server processor from Intel's Broadwell-EP family designed for single- and dual-socket workstations and servers that need strong per-core performance. With 4 cores and 8 threads, a 3.50 GHz base clock (up to 3.70 GHz Turbo), and 15 MB Intel Smart Cache, this processor is ideal for compute-heavy single-threaded tasks, virtualization, and professional workloads that favor higher clock speeds over raw core count.

Key benefits

• Excellent single-thread and lightly-threaded performance for enterprise applications, CAD, and legacy server workloads.
• Broadwell architecture with AVX2 and hardware virtualization support (VT-x, VT-d).
• Supports quad-channel DDR4 memory for high memory bandwidth and large memory capacity (up to 1.5 TB, platform dependent).
• Scalable to 2-socket server platforms for increased throughput in multi-socket systems.

Who should choose this CPU?

• IT professionals maintaining or upgrading legacy LGA2011-3 server/workstation platforms.


• Businesses running virtualization, database, and compute tasks that require higher clock speeds per core.


• Users requiring enterprise-grade features: ECC memory support, Intel Turbo Boost 2.0, Hyper-Threading and virtualization extensions.
