Intel Xeon E-2324G

The Intel Xeon E-2324G is a 4-core/4-thread server/workstation processor on Intel Socket 1200, built around the Rocket Lake-E architecture on Intel's 14 nm process. Its base clock is 3.10 GHz, its boost clock is 4.60 GHz, and its TDP is 65 W. It includes UHD Graphics P750, supports DDR4 memory, and posts an average benchmark score of 2795, placing it in the 53rd percentile of all CPUs in the database. Launch MSRP is $209.

How It Compares

Against the Intel Xeon E5-1650 v4, the E-2324G's 2795 average benchmark score is essentially equal to the rival's 2797. The deltaPct of -0.1% means the E-2324G is nominally 0.1% behind, which is close enough to be a statistical tie in aggregate scores.

Against the AMD Ryzen 3 5425U, the E-2324G is 0.1% ahead on average, 2795 versus 2792. That margin is negligible; the two processors sit in the same performance neighborhood according to the average benchmark data.

Against the Intel Xeon E5-4627 v3, the E-2324G leads by 0.2% on average, 2795 to 2789. This remains a small gap, consistent with the rival list classifying these parts as near neighbors rather than different tiers.

Against the Intel Core i5-8600K, the E-2324G is 0.4% ahead on average, 2795 versus 2783. This is the largest delta among the 4 nearest rivals, but it is still a slim lead in aggregate benchmark terms.

Power and Thermals

The 65 W TDP places the E-2324G in a modest power class for an Intel Socket 1200 processor. The 14 nm process and 276 mm² die are the physical traits of this part, and the 65 W rating keeps cooling requirements low. A capable air cooler is sufficient; the data does not indicate a need for exotic liquid cooling or a high-end thermal solution.

Because this is a 4-core/4-thread processor that also includes UHD Graphics P750, the thermal envelope covers the whole chip in a compact server/workstation package. The active production status and 65 W TDP make it a plausible choice for systems where predictable low-power operation matters more than raw multi-core throughput.

Single-Thread vs Multi-Thread Behavior

The E-2324G has 4 cores and 4 threads, so it does not rely on simultaneous multithreading. The single-core benchmark results are clear: Cinebench R15 single-core is 123, Cinebench R20 single-core is 513, Cinebench R23 single-core is 1223, and Geekbench single-core is 2059. These numbers line up with the 4.60 GHz boost clock and the Rocket Lake core design.

The multi-core results are 873 in Cinebench R15, 3640 in Cinebench R20, 8668 in Cinebench R23, and 5257 in Geekbench. With exactly 4 threads, multi-threaded work is capped by the physical core count. The split between single-core and multi-core scores means lightly threaded tasks can take advantage of the high boost clock, while heavily parallel workloads will be bounded by the 4-thread ceiling.

Benchmark Performance

The average benchmark score of 2795 places the E-2324G in the 53rd percentile of all CPUs in the database. The nearest rival list shows how tightly grouped this part is: the Intel Xeon E5-1650 v4 scores 2797 with a deltaPct of -0.1%, meaning the E-2324G is 0.1% behind. The AMD Ryzen 3 5425U scores 2792 with a deltaPct of 0.1%, meaning the E-2324G is 0.1% ahead. The Intel Xeon E5-4627 v3 scores 2789 with a deltaPct of 0.2%, and the Intel Core i5-8600K scores 2783 with a deltaPct of 0.4%. All 4 nearest rivals are therefore within 0.4% of the E-2324G's average score.

Looking at the individual benchmark runs, the single-core scores are 123 in Cinebench R15, 513 in Cinebench R20, 1223 in Cinebench R23, and 2059 in Geekbench. The multi-core scores are 873, 3640, 8668, and 5257 in the same order. These results show a predictable 4-core/4-thread curve: the multi-core numbers reflect the physical core count, and the single-core numbers reflect the high boost behavior of the design.

Because the average score gap to the nearest rivals is so small, benchmark results indicate that the E-2324G competes directly with those parts in aggregate performance. The 0.4% delta against the Core i5-8600K is the largest separation, but it does not suggest a meaningful tier difference in this benchmark set.

Platform and Compatibility

The E-2324G is built for Intel Socket 1200, with the Rocket Lake architecture, the Rocket Lake-E codename, and the Xeon E (Rocket Lake-E) generation label. Memory support is dual-channel DDR4 with ECC, and the memory bus is rated at 51.2 GB/s. The CPU provides PCIe Gen 4 with 20 lanes, and the lane count is specified as CPU only.

The cache hierarchy includes 80 KB of L1 per core, 512 KB of L2 per core, and 8 MB of shared L3. The integrated UHD Graphics P750 is present on the package, which means a separate GPU is not mandatory for basic display output. The multiplier is locked, so the operating frequency is governed by the 3.10 GHz base clock and 4.60 GHz boost clock rather than user overclocking.

The process node is 14 nm, the die size is 276 mm², and the part number is SRKN7. Production status is Active, and the release date is September 7, 2021. For upgrade planning, the Intel Socket 1200 interface is the boundary: any processor replacement must stay within the same socket family. The Rocket Lake-E generation label and the CPU-only PCIe lane definition are the relevant compatibility details for this platform.
