HPE Xeon Gold 5315Y 8-Core Server Processor
The HPE Xeon Gold 5315Y is an 8-core, 16-thread server CPU built on a 10 nm process with a 3.20 GHz base clock and 3.60 GHz overclocking speed. It targets IT teams upgrading HPE Gen10 Plus platforms that require balanced compute density for virtualisation, cloud workloads or database nodes.
Socket LGA-4189 Compatibility and Platform Fit
This processor seats in a Socket LGA-4189 and carries a 140 W thermal design power with an 81°C maximum case temperature. The 3.1" by 2.2" package fits standard server heatsinks, freeing rack space for memory channels and storage controllers while the 12 MB L3 cache reduces latency for multi-threaded services.
Sustained Load Behaviour and Thermal Envelope
Under continuous load the chip maintains its 140 W envelope up to the 81°C thermal specification, relying on server-grade airflow rather than burst turbo headroom. The 3.60 GHz overclocking speed provides short uplift, but steady-state throughput is governed by the base frequency and cache capacity, making it suited for predictable, long-running tasks.

Questions about this item
What is the thermal design power of the Xeon Gold 5315Y and how does it limit sustained performance?
The processor has a 140 W thermal design power, which sets the cooling capacity required to maintain its 3.20 GHz base clock under continuous load.
What are the thermal specification and power draw when the Xeon Gold 5315Y runs all day?
The chip is rated for a maximum case temperature of 81 °C (177.8 °F) while drawing up to 140 W, so sustained operation needs a cooler rated for that heat output.
Which socket and processor generation must the server board already support for this Xeon Gold 5315Y to work?
The motherboard must provide an LGA-4189 socket and support Intel 3rd Generation Xeon Scalable processors.
