HP Intel Xeon 6505P 12-Core 2.2 GHz 150W Desktop Processor

SKU CH-FD8G-TQCZB

A 12-core desktop processor with 24 threads, 48 MB L3 cache and a 2.2 GHz base clock reaching 4.10 GHz overclocking speed in an LGA-4710 socket at 150 W

  • Product nameIntel Xeon 6505P
  • CPU cores12
  • TDP rating150 W
  • Processor classServer
  • Working frequency2.2 GHz
  • 12 cores and 24 threads handle heavy multi-threaded workloads
  • 48 MB L3 cache keeps large data sets close to the cores
  • Base frequency of 2.2 GHz delivers steady compute performance
  • Turbo boost up to 4.10 GHz accelerates single-thread bursts
  • 150 W TDP defines the thermal envelope for cooling design

HP Intel Xeon 6505P 12-Core Processor

The HP Intel Xeon 6505P is a 12-core desktop processor built for multi-threaded workloads. It runs at a base frequency of 2.2 GHz with 24 threads and a 48 MB L3 cache. The chip fits the LGA-4710 socket and carries a 150 W thermal design power rating.

4.10 GHz Overclocking Speed and 64-bit Processing

The 4.10 GHz overclocking speed allows higher single-thread performance when thermal headroom exists. 64-bit processing support enables large memory addressing for demanding applications. The 48 MB L3 cache reduces latency for data-intensive tasks across all 12 cores.

Suited for workstations needing 12 cores

This processor suits workstations that require 12 cores and 24 threads within a 150 W envelope on the LGA-4710 platform. Builders needing a different socket, lower power draw, or integrated graphics should consider other options.

Questions about this item

How often will the thermal paste need replacing on a 150 W Xeon 6505P running at 2.2 GHz?

Plan to reapply quality thermal paste every two to three years; the 150 W TDP pushes sustained heat through the LGA-4710 socket, so fresh paste keeps the 12 cores at safe temperatures.

What thermal ceiling hits first when all 24 threads run at 4.10 GHz for hours?

The 150 W power envelope is the first hard limit; once the 12 cores sustain 4.10 GHz the package power saturates the cooler and clocks throttle before any other bottleneck appears.

How loud and hot does the cooler get with a 150 W Xeon 6505P under all-day load?

Expect the heatsink to run warm to the touch and the fan to spin at a noticeable but steady rpm; the 150 W TDP means continuous heat output that a properly mounted tower cooler handles without extreme noise.
