Xeon Gold 6142 16-core server processor

The Intel Xeon Gold 6142 is a hexadeca-core server processor built for demanding data centre, hybrid-cloud and storage workloads. It runs at a base clock of 2.60 GHz with an overclocking speed of 3.70 GHz. The chip includes 16 MB of L2 cache and 22 MB of L3 cache. It uses 14 nm process technology and supports 64-bit processing.

Socket 3647 platform requirements

This processor fits a Socket 3647 motherboard and has a thermal design power of 150 W. The package measures 3 inches wide by 2.2 inches deep. A cooling solution must handle the 150 W heat output within the 85 °C thermal specification. The platform choice determines memory capacity, expansion slots and power delivery.

Sustained load thermal behaviour

Under continuous workloads the CPU operates at its rated 150 W TDP. The thermal specification of 85 °C (185 °F) defines the maximum safe junction temperature. Adequate airflow and heatsink capacity are required to maintain this limit during extended compute tasks. The 14 nm process and cache hierarchy help sustain throughput without short bursts.
