This Intel SLGEM delivers Intel Retail Boxed Processors functionality and is built for 24/7 enterprise duty cycles. Technical specifications include clock speed of 2.80 GHz, bus speed of 1066 MHz FSB, cache of 6MB L2, cores of 2. Common deployment scenarios include in-place server upgrades from prior Xeon/EPYC generations, matched-pair second-socket installation, hot-spare provisioning, and refurbished rebuild programs for older platforms. Pro Disk Network maintains the SLGEM in our enterprise inventory and verifies each unit against manufacturer datasheet specifications prior to listing. New stock ships factory-sealed where available; refurbished units are tested under load before dispatch and ship with a 90-day Pro Disk Network functional warranty. Same-day dispatch on in-stock orders placed before 3pm ET; free standard ground shipping on US orders over $150.
The SLGEM is a Intel intel retail boxed processors component with clock speed 2.80 GHz, bus speed 1066 MHz FSB, cache 6MB L2. Pricing on the SLGEM is quote-based — email sales@prodisknetwork.com or use our live chat for a quote within one business day.
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 SLGEM ship?
Pro Disk Network dispatches the SLGEM same-day on orders confirmed before 3 pm ET. Multi-pallet projects requiring crating ship within 2 business days. International shipping (Canada, Mexico, EU, APAC) takes 3-7 business days via DHL Express or FedEx International Priority.
The SLGEM 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.
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.

Frequently Asked Questions about SLGEM
Is the SLGEM a genuine Intel part?
Yes. Pro Disk Network sources every SLGEM as factory-original Intel inventory. New units arrive sealed in OEM packaging; refurbished units are pulled from decommissioned Intel servers, surface-tested, and re-warranted by Pro Disk Network for 90 days.
What socket does the SLGEM 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.

What is the warranty on the SLGEM?
New SLGEM units carry the full Intel manufacturer warranty (typically 1 to 5 years depending on product line). Refurbished and bulk-OEM units include a Pro Disk Network advance-replacement warranty (90 days refurbished). DOA replacement is free within 30 days of receipt.

Pro Disk Network Buyer’s Guide: Intel Retail Boxed Processors
Socket Compatibility, EVC Mode, and BIOS Revision Planning
For Hyper-V clusters, Live Migration compatibility is more forgiving but still benefits from matched CPU stepping across cluster nodes. For Kubernetes / Tanzu, CPU heterogeneity is acceptable because pods are stateless, but resource-request planning becomes harder when nodes have different core counts.
AI Workloads, AMX, and the Inference Performance Story
Late-generation Intel Xeon processors (Sapphire Rapids, Emerald Rapids, Granite Rapids) include AMX (Advanced Matrix Extensions) silicon that accelerates INT8 inference workloads dramatically. For the SLGEM, if AMX is present, BERT-base inference throughput improves 4-6× over the previous generation; LLM inference (Llama 2 7B INT8 quantised) improves 2-3×. AMX does not require code changes when used through libraries that already support it (oneAPI, ONNX Runtime, OpenVINO).
