- 5 MB L3 cache per processor and up to 3.70 GHz turbo accelerates single-thread bursts
- 512 GB DDR4-2666 ECC memory across 16 modules supports dense virtualisation workloads
- 36 TB enterprise SATA SSD array from eight 1.92 TB drives delivers sustained high IOPS
- Validated for PowerEdge R540, R640, R740, R740xd, T440 and T640 servers
Matched Pair Xeon Gold 6148 Kit
This bundle delivers two Intel Xeon Gold 6148 processors, each with 20 cores running at 2.40 GHz and a 27.5 MB L3 cache. It includes 512GB of DDR4-2666MHz ECC memory across 16 modules and 15.36TB of enterprise SATA SSD storage using eight 1.92TB drives. Thermal paste is supplied for installation.
Suits Dual-Socket PowerEdge Upgrades
The kit targets administrators upgrading compatible Dell PowerEdge R540, R640, R740, R740xd, T440 or T640 servers to handle virtualization and high-demand workloads. Buyers with single-socket platforms or systems requiring a different socket type cannot use this matched pair. The 150W TDP per processor also demands adequate cooling capacity.
Slot 2 Socket Compatibility Decides Fit
The decisive specification is the Slot 2 CPU socket type required by both processors. Only servers designed for this socket and validated for the listed PowerEdge models will accept the kit. Confirm the motherboard socket and system qualification before purchase.

Questions about this item
How do I verify the 20-core Xeon Gold 6148 pair is running at the 2.40 GHz base speed after installation?
Check the BIOS or operating-system monitoring tools to confirm both processors show 2.40 GHz base frequency, 27.5 MB L3 cache each, and that all 16 memory modules are detected at 2666 MHz.
What components are included in the bundle and what must I source separately?
The bundle supplies two Xeon Gold 6148 CPUs, 16 x 32 GB DDR4-2666 ECC modules totalling 512 GB, eight 1.92 TB SATA SSDs for 15.36 TB, and thermal paste; rails, power cords and OS licences are not included.
Which capacity configuration suits a PowerEdge R740 needing maximum memory and storage?
The 512 GB DDR4 kit and 15.36 TB SSD array match the R740's 24 DIMM slots and 2.5-inch drive bays, providing the highest listed memory and storage in a single matched package.
