Eight-core Ice Lake server CPU
The Intel Xeon Gold 5315Y is an 8-core, 16-thread processor built on 10 nm Ice Lake architecture for LGA 4189 sockets. It runs at a 3.2 GHz base frequency with a 3.60 GHz maximum turbo and includes 12MB of L3 cache. This unit suits single-socket or dual-socket servers handling virtualization, cloud workloads or database tasks.
DDR4 2933 eight-channel memory and PCIe 4.0 lanes
The integrated memory controller supports DDR4 2933 across eight channels, capping memory bandwidth at that speed. PCI Express revision 4.0 provides up to 64 lanes for add-in cards, storage controllers or accelerators. Platforms requiring faster memory speeds, more channels or PCIe 5.0 connectivity cannot use this processor.
Replaces earlier Xeon Gold
The part upgrades systems currently running lower-core-count Ice Lake or Cascade Lake CPUs where higher thread density and 140W thermal headroom improve consolidation ratios. It is not suited for workloads demanding more than 8 cores, higher base clocks or memory speeds beyond DDR4 2933.

Questions about this item
How do I decide between the 3.2 GHz base and 3.60 GHz turbo speeds?
The 3.2 GHz base clock is the guaranteed all-core frequency under load, while the 3.60 GHz max turbo applies when fewer cores are active and thermal headroom exists.
What does the 140 W TDP mean for my server cooling and power budget?
A 140 W TDP indicates the sustained heat the cooler must dissipate and the power the VRM must deliver; plan airflow and PSU capacity accordingly.
What bandwidth does the PCIe 4.0 interface with 64 lanes provide for add-in cards?
PCIe 4.0 doubles the per-lane throughput of PCIe 3.0, and 64 lanes allow multiple x16 GPUs or storage controllers without sharing bandwidth.
