With 4 cores (8 threads) at a 3.80GHz base clock, boosting to 3.90GHz, the Intel Xeon Platinum 8256 carries 16.5MB of cache and is rated at 105W. Part of the 2nd Generation Intel Xeon Scalable Processors line, it uses FCLGA3647 and addresses up to 1TB of memory at 2933MHz DDR4.
Per-core software licensing makes core count a cost decision as well as a performance one. Platinum-tier chips target the heaviest consolidation, database and HPC work. In a two-socket server both processors must be the same model; check the server's supported processor list, BIOS level and heatsink rating for a 105W part before fitting. Adding a second processor also opens up the memory channels and PCIe lanes attached to that socket. Its S-spec, SRF94, pins down the exact stepping. Apply fresh thermal paste each time the processor is seated. A 105W processor needs a heatsink rated for its power, and higher-TDP parts may need the server’s high-performance heatsink.
This certified refurbished part has been inspected and bench-tested in Johannesburg.
