16-core Xeon 6517P server processor

The Intel Xeon 6 6517P delivers 16 cores and 32 threads at a 3.2 GHz base frequency for dual-socket server platforms. It targets compute-intensive workloads such as virtualisation, database serving and high-performance computing clusters. Builders needing more than 16 cores per socket or a different socket type should look elsewhere.

Sustained all-core turbo behaviour

Under continuous load the processor maintains an all-core turbo frequency of 4.0 GHz across its 16 cores within a 190 W thermal design power envelope. The 3 nm Granite Rapids architecture and 72 MB L3 cache help sustain throughput without the frequency decay seen in short-burst operation. Cooling solutions must be sized for the full 190 W dissipation.

DDR5 6400 and PCIe 5.0 interface limits

The integrated memory controller supports eight channels of DDR5 6400 memory up to a 4 TB maximum capacity per socket. PCI Express 5.0 provides 88 lanes for high-bandwidth accelerators, storage and networking cards. Systems requiring memory speeds beyond 6400 MT/s or more than 88 PCIe 5.0 lanes will hit the platform ceiling.

Questions about this item

How much heat does the 190 W thermal design power create during sustained all-core loads?

The processor runs at a base frequency of 3.2 GHz and reaches an all-core turbo of 4.0 GHz within a 190 W thermal envelope, so sustained workloads will dissipate up to that power level.

Which memory modules and how many channels are required for the integrated DDR5 6400 controller?

The memory controller supports eight channels of DDR5 6400, so eight compatible DIMMs are needed to populate every channel and reach the rated speed.

Will the FCLGA 4710 socket and 88 PCIe 5.0 lanes work with existing dual-socket server boards?

The CPU uses the FCLGA 4710 socket and provides 88 PCI Express 5.0 lanes, both of which are specific to this platform and require a matching motherboard.
