4x Xeon 8160 3U Server

The Dell PowerEdge R940 is a 3U rack server fitted with four Intel Xeon Platinum 8160 processors running at 2.1 GHz. It ships with 768 GB of DDR4 registered ECC memory across 24 modules. The PERC H730P controller manages eight 2.4 TB 10K SAS drives. Dual 1600 W platinum power supplies and iDRAC 9 Enterprise are included.

Who this suits

Organisations running dense virtualization clusters, large databases or ERP workloads that need four-socket performance in a 3U footprint will match the installed 768 GB and eight-drive SAS array. Buyers who need more than 48 DIMM slots, more than eight 2.5-inch bays or a different drive protocol should look elsewhere.

Deciding specification

The four Xeon 8160 CPUs deliver 24 cores each at 2.1 GHz with a 3.7 GHz turbo frequency. This core count and clock combination determines whether the server meets the throughput target for the intended application.
