Intel Xeon Max 9462 PK8071305223900 32-core 2.7 GHz server processor

32-core Xeon Max 9462 for dense compute

The Intel Xeon Max 9462 is a 32-core server processor built on 10 nm Sapphire Rapids silicon. It runs at a 2.7 GHz base frequency and reaches 3.5 GHz max turbo across 64 threads. The LGA 4677 package targets two-socket platforms that need high core counts for virtualisation, HPC or large-memory databases.

75 MB L3 cache and eight-channel DDR5 change

A 75 MB L3 cache feeds all cores with low-latency data, while the integrated controller drives eight DDR5 channels at up to 4800 MT/s single-DIMM or 4400 MT/s dual-DIMM. This combination raises sustained bandwidth for memory-bound workloads and supports up to 4 TB per socket without extra memory buffers.

350 W TDP and PCIe 5.0 shape rack deployment

The 350 W thermal design power demands robust socket cooling; no cooler ships in the box. Eighty PCI Express 5.0 lanes provide high-speed I/O for accelerators, storage or networking cards. Two-socket scalability lets builders double cores and memory channels within a single chassis.
