Intel Xeon Silver 4114 10-Core 2.20GHz Server Processor

With 10 cores (20 threads) at a 2.20GHz base clock, boosting to 3.00GHz, the Intel Xeon Silver 4114 carries 13.75MB of cache and is rated at 85W. Part of the 1st Generation Intel Xeon Scalable Processors line, it uses Socket 3647 and addresses up to 768GB of memory at 2400MHz DDR4.

Per-core software licensing makes core count a cost decision as well as a performance one. In most dual-socket servers the second processor also brings its own memory channels and expansion lanes into play. Its S-spec, SR3GK, pins down the exact stepping. Silver and Bronze tiers are economical choices for general-purpose and storage servers. Dual-socket servers need two of the same model; the server's processor support list and BIOS level decide whether this one is accepted. With simultaneous multithreading enabled, it presents 20 threads to the operating system. Boost clocks apply when thermal and power headroom allow; the base clock is the sustained figure. Clean off old thermal compound and apply fresh paste when fitting it. A 85W processor needs a heatsink rated for its power, and higher-TDP parts may need the server’s high-performance heatsink.

As a certified refurbished part, it is inspected, bench-tested and function-checked by our Johannesburg team before release.
