Dual Xeon Gold 6152 44-core server
The Dell PowerEdge R640 is a 1U rackmount server system equipped with two Intel Xeon Gold 6152 processors totalling 44 cores at 2.10 GHz. It ships with 512 GB of DDR4 memory installed and supports up to 3 TB maximum capacity. Eight 2.5-inch drive bays and an H740P storage controller provide flexible storage configuration. The unit includes a front bezel and arrives ready for rack deployment.
Thermals noise and power profile
Front-panel LEDs indicate power, Ethernet and USB status for quick diagnostics. The integrated GPU handles basic display output without adding discrete-card heat. With a 60 kg chassis weight the system relies on Dell's engineered airflow design for thermal management during typical virtualization, database and file-storage workloads. No operating system is pre-installed so power draw reflects your chosen software stack.
Sustained load behaviour
The dual-socket LGA3647 platform delivers consistent multi-threaded throughput for extended virtualization sessions and data-heavy applications. Memory bandwidth scales across 512 GB of DDR4 to keep multiple services responsive under continuous demand. Storage performance depends on the drives you select for the eight available bays. Buyers needing more than 3 TB of RAM or GPU-accelerated compute should evaluate alternative platforms.

Questions about this item
How do I install the Dell PowerEdge R640 into a rack, and what step is often missed?
Slide the chassis onto the rack rails and secure it with the front mounting screws; the step often missed is locking the quick-release latches on each rail so the server cannot shift under vibration.
What maintenance will the PERC H740P RAID controller need later?
The controller uses a replaceable lithium backup battery for cache protection; plan to swap it every three to five years or when the iDRAC alerts show a voltage drop.
What is the first limit reached when both Xeon Gold 6152 CPUs run at 2.10GHz continuously?
The 44 cores can saturate the DDR4 memory bandwidth before the processors hit their thermal ceiling, so sustained throughput tops out at the memory subsystem.
