3 Processor

The PowerEdge C5220 features the new Intel Xeon processor E3-1200v2 product family, as well as
the Intel Xeon processor E3-1200 product family, the Intel Core i3-2120 processor and the Intel
Pentium processor 350. The processors feature two or four cores, support for 32GB memory and
significant performance improvement (up to 20%) over the previous generation.
The processor uses the 1155 LGA package that plugs into the H2 socket. Each PowerEdge C5220
supports only one processor per sled.
