About the M140H
The Dell M140H (M140H - Dell 2.53GHz 1066MHz 6MB Cache Socket PPGA478 Intel Core 2 Duo P9500 Dual Core Processor) is a Intel Unboxed Processors component engineered for sustained enterprise-class workloads. This part addresses common procurement scenarios where exact-match replacement, capacity expansion, or new-build deployment is required. Technical specifications include clock speed of 2.53 GHz, cache of 6MB, cores of 2. Typical use cases include data-center server fleet refresh, replacement of dead-on-arrival CPUs under existing service contracts, second-socket population on partially-populated dual-socket boards, and lab/test rebuild programs. Pro Disk Network supplies the M140H to US business buyers. Stocked units ship in 1–3 business days. Pro Disk Network applies a 90-day functional warranty. Free US ground shipping on orders over $150.
The M140H is a Dell intel unboxed processors component with clock speed 2.53 GHz, cache 6MB, cores 2. Pro Disk Network sells the M140H for $112.29 with US shipping in 1–3 business days and a 30-day return guarantee.
Confirm the socket against your motherboard's CPU support list - Intel Xeon Scalable spans LGA 3647 (1st/2nd gen), LGA 4189 (3rd gen Ice Lake), and LGA 4677 (4th/5th gen Sapphire/Emerald Rapids). A BIOS update is often required for newer steppings even on the same socket. Email sales@prodisknetwork.com with your motherboard model for a compatibility check.
How fast does the M140H ship?
M140H orders ship in 1–3 business days from US warehouses. Delivery is next business day to most metro ZIPs via FedEx/UPS overnight; ground delivery covers remaining US in 1-4 business days.
The M140H is deployed by US enterprises, MSPs, government, and education customers across multiple infrastructure scenarios. Below are the most common deployment patterns Pro Disk Network sees in real-world orders.
Hyper-V Cluster Node — Windows Server Datacenter licenses by core, but Hyper-V scales linearly. Higher-clock, mid-core SKUs win for transactional workloads.
Citrix VDI Pool — Frequency-sensitive — prefer high-clock 16–18 core SKUs over high-core-count parts to maintain user-perceived snappiness.
Kubernetes / Tanzu Workers — Higher core count amortises better across many small Pods. EVC mode planning matters for live-migrate parity.
AI Inference Host — Sapphire Rapids and Emerald Rapids include AMX silicon for INT8 inference acceleration — meaningful uplift for BERT, ResNet, and LLM serving.
What is the M140H?
The M140H is a Dell server-class processor with clock speed 2.53 GHz and cache 6MB, manufactured by Dell. Pro Disk Network ships this part new and certified-refurbished from our US warehouse with dispatch in 1–3 business days, backed by a 30-day return guarantee.
Pros & Cons of M140H
Pros
Shipping in 1–3 business days from our US warehouse cuts deployment lead time
Cons
Server-grade thermal load — confirm cooler rating before installation
Yes. Pro Disk Network sources every M140H as factory-original Dell inventory. New units arrive sealed in OEM packaging; refurbished units are pulled from decommissioned Dell servers, surface-tested, and re-warranted by Pro Disk Network for 90 days.
What socket does the M140H use?
Confirm the socket against your motherboard's CPU support list - Intel Xeon Scalable spans LGA 3647 (1st/2nd gen), LGA 4189 (3rd gen Ice Lake), and LGA 4677 (4th/5th gen Sapphire/Emerald Rapids). A BIOS update is often required for newer steppings even on the same socket. Email sales@prodisknetwork.com with your motherboard model for a compatibility check.
How fast does the M140H ship?

Pro Disk Network Buyer’s Guide: Intel Unboxed Processors
Socket Compatibility, EVC Mode, and BIOS Revision Planning
For VMware vSphere clusters, EVC (Enhanced vMotion Compatibility) mode dictates which CPU generations can coexist in the same cluster while still supporting live migration. Adding a newer-generation M140H to a cluster with older CPUs requires setting EVC to the older baseline, which disables newer instructions on the new CPU. Plan EVC mode at cluster creation time; changing it later requires powering off the cluster.
AI Workloads, AMX, and the Inference Performance Story
Plan memory bandwidth alongside the CPU: AMX inference is memory-bandwidth sensitive. A M140H paired with insufficient memory channels (e.g., DDR5-4800 in fewer than 8 channels per socket) will underperform its theoretical peak by 30-40%. Confirm motherboard channel count and DIMM population before ordering.
