River Forest
Manufactured on Intel’s industry-leading 22nm process technology with 3D tri-gate transistors, the Intel® Xeon® E5-2600 v3 processor utilizes the Intel® microarchitecture codenamed Haswell. The Intel® Xeon® E5-2600 v3 processor is the first Intel® processor family to offer 12-core/single-socket or 24-core/dual-socket configurations with extended product life support. The Intel® Communications Chipset 89xx Series with Intel® QuickAssist Technology paired with the Intel® Xeon® E5-2600 v3 processor offers hardware-assisted acceleration for workload optimization. Intel® QuickAssist Technology increases server workload efficiency by offloading compute-intensive security, compression, and packet operations. This platform provides performance, I/O, and memory capabilities for a wide range of network-intensive applications including compute-intensive security and storage.
Key features on River Forest
- Compatible with Intel® enterprise server solutions which maximize design reuse potential between enterprise and embedded solutions
- Extended lifecycle product support protects system investment by enabling extended product availability for embedded, communications, and storage customers
- Low-power, high-reliability and robust thermal-profile processor options are ideal for NEBS Level 3 ambient operating temperature specifications and for applications requiring compliance with AdvancedTCA* form-factor specifications (PICMG 3.0)

Product and Performance Information
Intel® AES New Instructions (Intel® AES-NI) requires a computer system with an Intel® AES-NI-enabled processor, as well as non-Intel software to execute the instructions in the correct sequence. Intel® AES-NI is available on select Intel® processors. For availability, consult your reseller or system manufacturer. For more information, see software.intel.com/en-us/articles/intel-advanced-encryption-standard-instructions-aes-ni.
Intel® Virtualization Technology (Intel® VT) requires a computer system with an enabled Intel® processor, BIOS, and virtual machine monitor (VMM). Functionality, performance, or other benefits will vary depending on hardware and software configurations. Software applications may not be compatible with all operating systems. Consult your PC manufacturer. For more information, visit www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/virtualization/virtualization-technology/hardware-assist-virtualization-technology.html.
This feature may not be available on all computing systems. Please check with the system vendor to determine if your system delivers this feature, or reference the system specifications (motherboard, processor, chipset, power supply, HDD, graphics controller, memory, BIOS, drivers, virtual machine monitor-VMM, platform software, and/or operating system) for feature compatibility. Functionality, performance, and other benefits of this feature may vary depending on system configuration.
