24-core Xeon Gold 6252 server processor

The Intel Xeon Gold 6252 is a 24-core server processor built for multi-threaded workloads in data-centre environments. It delivers 48 threads at a 2.1 GHz base frequency with a 3.7 GHz maximum turbo frequency. The LGA 3647 socket and 150 W thermal design target rack-mounted systems requiring sustained throughput.

PCIe 3.0 platform with 48 lanes and six memory

The processor communicates through a PCI Express 3.0 interface limited to 48 lanes, capping total I/O bandwidth for attached accelerators, storage controllers and network adapters. Six DDR4 memory channels provide the only supported memory topology, so population rules and maximum capacity follow the platform specification rather than this CPU alone.

150 W TDP without a bundled cooler

A 150 W thermal design power means the part requires a server-grade heatsink or liquid loop rated for at least that load; no cooling device is included in the box. Builders who cannot provision adequate airflow or a compatible mounting solution should select a lower-power SKU instead.

Questions about this item

How do I choose between the 2.1 GHz base and 3.7 GHz turbo speeds?

The 2.1 GHz base clock is the guaranteed all-core speed under load; the 3.7 GHz turbo is the maximum single-core boost when thermal headroom allows. Pick the base figure for sustained throughput, the turbo for bursty workloads.

What does the 3.7 GHz turbo mean once the chip is in a real server?

It is the peak frequency one core can reach when power and temperature stay within the 150 W limit. In multi-threaded jobs all 24 cores typically run closer to the 2.1 GHz base.

What does PCIe 3.0 with 48 lanes cap in practice?

The 48 lanes carry GPU, storage or networking traffic at PCIe 3.0 speeds. Bandwidth per lane is fixed by the 3.0 spec, so total I/O throughput tops out at the aggregate of those 48 lanes.
