Xeon 636 12-core server processor

The Intel Xeon 636 is a 12-core, 24-thread server CPU built on the Granite Rapids architecture using the Intel 3 process. It fits the LGA 4710 socket and targets single-socket servers that need high per-core performance for compute-intensive workloads.

Sustained load behaviour and power limits

With a base frequency of 3.5 GHz and a maximum turbo of 4.7 GHz, the processor can raise clocks to 4.5 GHz under standard Turbo Boost 2.0. The thermal design power is 170 W, while the maximum turbo power reaches 204 W, so cooling must handle the higher figure during prolonged heavy work.

Memory and I/O practical limits

The integrated controller supports DDR5 6400 MHz across four channels with a maximum capacity of 2 TB. PCI Express 5.0 provides up to 80 lanes for high-bandwidth add-in cards and storage. Scalability is limited to a single socket, so dual-socket configurations are not supported.

Questions about this item

How hot does the 170W Xeon 636 run under sustained load?

The processor has a 170W base TDP and can reach 204W max turbo power, so plan cooling for at least 204W continuous dissipation.

Which motherboard socket and memory type are required for the PK8072007104400?

You need an LGA 4710 motherboard with quad-channel DDR5 6400MHz support.

Will the Xeon 636 work in a dual-socket board I already own?

No, the Xeon 636 is rated for 1S only and will not function in multi-socket configurations.
