Silver 4214 server processor

The Intel Xeon Silver 4214 delivers 12 cores and 24 threads at a 2.2 GHz base frequency with a 3.2 GHz max turbo. It targets dual-socket servers handling virtualisation, database or compute workloads that benefit from 16.5 MB L3 cache and six-channel DDR4-2400 memory support.

LGA 3647 platform check

Verify the motherboard uses the LGA 3647 socket and supports 85 W TDP cooling before ordering. Confirm the BIOS includes microcode for the Cascade Lake core and that the board provides six memory channels to reach the 1 TB maximum capacity.

Boxed processor without extras

The unit ships as a CPU only with no heatsink, mounting hardware or original packaging. Thermal paste residue or cosmetic marks may be present, so plan for a compatible LGA 3647 cooler and fresh thermal compound during installation.

Questions about this item

Does the BX806954214 come with a heatsink or thermal paste, or must I buy them separately?

The processor is sold as CPU only with no heatsink, thermal paste or other accessories included, so a compatible LGA 3647 cooler and paste must be purchased separately.

Should I choose the 12-core 2.2 GHz Silver 4214 or a higher-core-count model for a dual-socket server?

The Silver 4214 provides 12 cores and 24 threads at 2.2 GHz base with 3.2 GHz turbo, 85 W TDP and 2S scalability; select a higher-core model only if the workload needs more parallel threads within the same power envelope.

What does the 3.2 GHz turbo figure mean once the chip is installed in a live server?

The 3.2 GHz max turbo is the peak single-core frequency the processor can reach under thermal and power limits; sustained all-core speeds will stay closer to the 2.2 GHz base depending on cooling and workload.
