Intel Xeon E3-1230V6 4 Cores 8 Threads 3.9GHz H4 (LGA 1151) BX80677E31230V6 Server CPU

Single-Socket Server CPU for SMB Compute and Virtualization featuring 7th Gen Kaby Lake architecture with the Intel Xeon E3-1230V6

The Intel Xeon E3-1230V6 (SKU BX80677E31230V6) is a 1-socket LGA1151 server processor designed for entry server compute where predictable latency, ECC memory integrity, and streamlined platform costs matter. Built on Intel’s 14nm Kaby Lake generation, the Intel Xeon E3-1230V6 targets lightweight consolidation, web and infrastructure services, and dedicated application nodes without introducing multi-socket complexity.

On C232/C236 chipset server motherboards, the Intel Xeon E3-1230V6 enables DDR4-2400 ECC memory operation up to 64GB, supporting stable operation for business-critical services and long uptimes. PCIe 3.0 connectivity provides up to 16 CPU lanes for common expansion profiles such as a RAID/HBA controller, high-throughput NICs, or a single accelerator-class add-in card where bandwidth planning is required. With no integrated graphics, the platform is optimized for headless rack deployment and remote management workflows. Virtualization capabilities including VT-x, VT-d, and EPT help maintain isolation and efficient I/O mapping for basic hypervisor hosts.

Why Choose the Intel Xeon E3-1230V6?

The Intel Xeon E3-1230V6 delivers a practical density-to-performance balance for single-socket servers that need consistent compute for mixed infrastructure roles. Its ECC-capable platform, virtualization feature set, and controlled power profile support scalable rollouts across branch, SMB, or edge server fleets where standardization and serviceability are priorities.

Intel’s server CPU engineering emphasizes validated platform interoperability, robust instruction-set support, and long-term operational stability. The Intel Xeon E3-1230V6 aligns well with established LGA1151 server ecosystems to extend lifecycle value while meeting common data centre expectations for reliability and manageability.
