Lenovo 00YJ197

Overview

The Lenovo 00YJ197 is a server processor based on the Intel Xeon E5-2650 v4, designed to handle demanding enterprise and data center workloads. It features 12 cores and 24 threads running at a base frequency of 2.2 GHz, with Intel Turbo Boost Technology increasing speeds up to 2.9 GHz when extra performance is needed. This processor fits into systems with the LGA 2011-v3 socket and is built on a 14 nm process, balancing power efficiency with strong multithreaded capabilities.

With a large 30 MB L3 cache and 3 MB L2 cache, it keeps critical data close to the cores for faster access. The integrated memory controller and Intel QuickPath Interconnect running at 9.6 GT/s ensure efficient communication between the processor and system components. This combination makes it well suited for virtualization, application hosting, and infrastructure services that require consistent and reliable performance.

We act solely as a reseller. Any product warranty is provided and administered by the manufacturer, not by our store. That means eligibility, coverage, and outcomes are determined by the manufacturer’s policy for each brand and model. Before purchasing, we recommend reviewing the warranty terms on the manufacturer’s website or in the product documentation to confirm what is covered and for how long.

If you need warranty service, please file the claim directly with the manufacturer. They may require proof of purchase, the product serial number, original packaging, photos, or basic troubleshooting. Some brands ask you to register the product or obtain a case number before shipping it for repair or replacement. We don’t submit or approve claims, but we can point you to the correct support links and contact details.

Keep your invoice and packaging in a safe place, and report any functional issues to the manufacturer as soon as they appear. If you’re unsure whether a problem is covered, the manufacturer’s support team can confirm next steps and timelines. While we cannot intervene in decisions or outcomes, we’re happy to provide purchase documentation or guidance so you can move through the warranty process smoothly.
