Intel Xeon Gold 6240R 24-core processor
This Intel Xeon Gold 6240R is a 24-core server processor built for demanding data centre, multi-cloud compute, and network or storage workloads. It delivers 48 threads at a 2.40 GHz base clock with an overclocking speed up to 4 GHz. The 14 nm design supports four-socket scalability for expanded capacity.
165 W TDP and 90 °C thermal spec
Thermal Design Power is rated at 165 W with a maximum thermal specification of 90 °C. The 35.75 MB L3 cache and 24 MB L2 cache help sustain throughput under sustained loads. Cooling solutions must handle this heat output in normal multi-socket operation.
Tray packaging without bundled cooler
The processor ships in tray form without a heatsink or fan included. System integrators must supply a compatible Socket 3647 cooling solution. No software utilities or mounting hardware are bundled with this OEM tray unit.

Questions about this item
How do I install the Xeon Gold 6240R into the Socket 3647, and which step do people get wrong?
Align the processor triangle with the socket corner, lower it straight down without pressure, then close the load plate and torque the four captive screws in a cross pattern to the specified value; the step most often missed is the cross-pattern torque sequence, which prevents uneven contact.
What maintenance or replacement will the Xeon Gold 6240R need later?
The processor itself has no serviceable parts; plan to replace the thermal interface material whenever the cooler is removed, and verify the 165 W cooler remains seated and clean so the 90 °C thermal specification is not exceeded.
What limit appears first on the Xeon Gold 6240R under sustained load?
The 165 W thermal design power is the first ceiling; if the cooling solution cannot dissipate that heat continuously, the 24 cores will throttle below the 2.40 GHz base frequency to stay within the 90 °C junction limit.
