Intel Xeon 658X 24-Core 3.0 GHz LGA 4710 250W Server Processor BX80720658X

Xeon 658X 24-core server processor

The Intel Xeon 658X is a 24-core server CPU built for single-socket platforms that need high thread density. It delivers 48 threads at a 3.0 GHz base frequency and targets compute-heavy workloads such as virtualisation, database serving and high-performance computing. The processor uses the LGA 4710 socket and the Intel 3 manufacturing process.

LGA 4710 socket and 1S-only scalability

This processor fits only motherboards with the LGA 4710 socket and supports single-socket operation. It cannot be used in dual-socket or multi-socket configurations. The platform provides eight DDR5 memory channels running at 6400 MHz and up to 128 PCI Express 5.0 lanes for high-bandwidth I/O.

250 W base power with 300 W max turbo power

Under sustained load the CPU operates at its 250 W thermal design power, while short bursts can reach 300 W. The 144 MB L3 cache helps maintain throughput during extended compute tasks. Cooling solutions must be rated for at least the base power level to keep frequencies stable over long periods.
