Intel PK8077105931100 Xeon 6731E 96-core 2.2 GHz server processor

96-core Xeon for dense compute

The Intel Xeon 6731E packs 96 cores and 96 threads into a single FCLGA 4710 socket. Base frequency sits at 2.2 GHz with a maximum turbo of 3.1 GHz. The chip targets workloads that scale across many parallel threads such as cloud infrastructure, virtualisation hosts and high-throughput data analytics.

250 W TDP and thermal profile

Rated at 250 W, the processor draws significant power under full load and requires robust server-grade cooling. Eight-channel DDR5 6400 memory support feeds the cores with high bandwidth while the 3 nm manufacturing process helps contain leakage. No UPI links are present, so the part is limited to single-socket deployments.

PCIe 5.0 and memory capacity

The platform exposes PCI Express 5.0 lanes for modern accelerators and storage controllers. Maximum addressable memory reaches 4 TB across eight channels, enabling large in-memory databases. Virtualisation technology is supported in hardware, but the lack of multi-socket scaling means buyers needing larger NUMA domains must look elsewhere.
