16-core server processor for dense compute
The Intel Xeon 6 6515P delivers 16 cores and 32 threads in a 150 W envelope, targeting dual-socket servers that need high thread density for virtualisation, databases or high-performance computing. Its 3 nm Granite Rapids architecture provides a 2.3 GHz base frequency with an all-core turbo of 3.8 GHz.
72 MB L3 cache and DDR5-6400 memory subsystem
A shared 72 MB L3 cache feeds all cores to reduce latency on large working sets. The integrated controller drives eight DDR5-6400 channels for up to 4 TB of memory, giving ample bandwidth for in-memory analytics. Capacity stops at 4 TB; workloads needing more must scale across additional sockets.
PCIe 5.0 with 88 lanes and three UPI 24 GT/s links
The processor exposes 88 PCIe 5.0 lanes for fast storage, networking or accelerator cards. Three UPI links at 24 GT/s connect two sockets with low latency. Systems limited to PCIe 4.0 or fewer UPI links cannot use the full I/O potential of this chip.

Questions about this item
Will the FCLGA 4710 socket fit the same motherboard as my older Xeon Scalable processors?
No. The FCLGA 4710 socket is new for the Xeon 6 series and is not compatible with previous Xeon Scalable platforms.
How can I confirm the 16 cores and 32 threads are recognised after installation?
Check the operating system task manager or run lscpu; both should report 16 cores and 32 threads at the 2.3 GHz base frequency.
Does the box include a heatsink or do I need to buy a 150 W cooler separately?
The processor is sold without a cooling device; you must purchase a compatible cooler rated for at least 150 W TDP.
