Intel Xeon E5-2650 Is Pretty Large

We are setting up the Intel Server System R2208GZ4GC 2U unit with its processors, RAID, storage, and SAS components.

The CPU below the E5-2650 is a Cyrix by IBM. Vintage is around the Pentium II 300 time frame which was mid nineteen nineties.

And, as a comparison with a socket 775 CPU which is fairly consistent size wise through to today’s Intel Second Generation Core processors.
