Intel Xeon E5-2418L v2 vs Intel Xeon E5-2428L v2: comparison

Comparison of Intel Xeon E5-2418L v2 and Intel Xeon E5-2428L v2: key differences and a full specification table.

Key differences

Intel Xeon E5-2418L v2 has a higher base clock (2 GHz vs 1.8 GHz) and a lower TDP (50 W vs 60 W).

At the same time, Intel Xeon E5-2428L v2 has more cores (8 vs 6), more threads (16 vs 12), a higher maximum clock (2.3 GHz vs 2 GHz) and a larger L3 cache (20 MB vs 15 MB).

Both processors match on: process node (22 nm), maximum memory size (384 GB), memory channels (3), PCIe version (3).

These are specification values: they show differences between the models but do not determine a performance winner. For a specific workload, rely on independent benchmarks.
