Eight-core server processor

The Intel Xeon Gold 5515+ is an eight-core, sixteen-thread server CPU built for dual-socket platforms. It targets workloads that need balanced per-core speed and moderate thread density, such as virtualisation hosts, database nodes and high-performance computing clusters.

Straightforward socket installation

The processor drops into an LGA 4677 socket using standard server mounting hardware; no special tools are required beyond a torque wrench for the retention mechanism. The main risk is bent socket pins on the motherboard, so inspect the socket carefully before seating the chip and apply even pressure during lock-down.

165 W thermal design power

This part carries a 165 W TDP, which dictates the cooler and chassis airflow you must provide. If your rack or tower cannot dissipate that heat continuously, the processor will throttle and you will lose the performance you paid for.

Questions about this item

How do I verify the Xeon Gold 5515+ is running at its 3.2 GHz base and 4.1 GHz max turbo after installation?

Check the operating frequency in BIOS or a hardware monitor; it should show 3.2 GHz base and boost up to 4.1 GHz under load.

What comes in the box with the PK8072205559000 and what must I source separately?

The tray processor only; you must buy a compatible LGA 4677 heatsink, thermal paste and a server motherboard separately.

When should I choose the 8-core 5515+ over other 5th Gen Xeon Gold SKUs?

Select the 5515+ when you need 8 cores, 16 threads, 22.5 MB L3 cache and a 165 W TDP for 2-socket scaling.
