HP 662224-B21 – HP E5-2637 (3.00GHz – 2C) DL380p G8 CPU Kit

Detailed Description:

The HP 662224-B21 CPU Kit introduces an upgrade pathway for the HP ProLiant DL380p Gen8 servers, featuring the Intel Xeon E5-2637 processor. This processor is designed with 2 cores and a high base clock speed of 3.00GHz, prioritizing tasks that benefit from high per-core performance. It’s suited for applications and workloads that require fast processing of fewer threads, such as certain database functions or specialized applications that do not effectively utilize many cores. Despite its focus on speed over core count, the E5-2637 supports Intel Hyper-Threading, allowing it to handle 4 threads simultaneously. This makes the processor adept at a balanced workload of high-speed computation and multitasking within its core limit. The CPU kit includes the processor itself, a heatsink to ensure optimal thermal management, and necessary installation components, providing a straightforward upgrade to enhance the performance and efficiency of ProLiant DL380p Gen8 servers.
