20-Core Xeon Silver 4316 Server CPU
The Intel Xeon Silver 4316 is a 20-core server processor with 40 threads, built on 10 nm Ice Lake architecture. It runs at a 2.3 GHz base frequency and reaches 3.40 GHz max turbo. The chip includes 30 MB L3 cache and supports 64-bit processing for multi-socket deployments.
LGA 4189 Socket Installation Notes
This processor uses the LGA 4189 socket and requires a compatible server motherboard. No cooling device is included, so a suitable heatsink or liquid block must be sourced separately. The 150 W thermal design power demands adequate airflow and mounting pressure. Verify BIOS revision supports 3rd Gen Xeon Scalable CPUs before fitting.
Dual-Socket Capable Workload Fit
The 4316 suits dual-socket servers needing 8-channel DDR4 2666 memory up to 6 TB total and 64 PCI Express 4.0 lanes. Virtualization technology and Hyper-Threading support dense VM or container hosts. It does not suit single-socket boards, consumer platforms, or builds that need integrated graphics or lower power envelopes.

Questions about this item
How can I verify the Xeon Silver 4316 is running at its 2.3 GHz base frequency and reaching 3.40 GHz max turbo after installation?
Check the operating frequency in BIOS or a monitoring tool such as Intel Processor Diagnostic Tool; it should show 2.3 GHz base and 3.40 GHz max turbo when all 20 cores are under load.
What is included in the BX806894316 box and what must be purchased separately?
The box contains the processor only; a compatible LGA 4189 cooler and DDR4 2666 memory modules must be bought separately.
Which memory configuration should I choose for the 8-channel controller and 6 TB maximum capacity?
Populate all eight channels with DDR4 2666 RDIMMs or LRDIMMs to reach the 6 TB limit and full bandwidth on the Xeon Silver 4316.
