28-Core Xeon W-3175X Workstation Processor
The Intel Xeon W-3175X is a 28-core, 56-thread server CPU built for professional workstations. It runs at a 3.1 GHz base frequency with a 3.8 GHz maximum turbo. The processor fits the LGA 3647 socket and includes 38.5 MB of L3 cache. It supports six memory channels and 48 PCI Express 3.0 lanes.
Suits Heavy Compute, Not General Desktop Builds
This processor targets users running heavily threaded workloads such as rendering, simulation or virtualisation. The 255 W thermal design power and mandatory LGA 3647 platform make it unsuitable for standard desktop chassis or consumer motherboards. Buyers needing lower power draw or mainstream socket compatibility should look elsewhere.
255 W TDP Demands Robust Cooling Solution
The 255 W thermal design power is the single specification that dictates system viability. No cooling device is included in the box. A workstation-class cooler rated for this heat output and the LGA 3647 mounting pattern is mandatory for stable operation.

Questions about this item
Should I choose the 28-core 3.1 GHz version or a lower-core model for my workstation?
This specific model is the 28-core, 56-thread Xeon W-3175X at 3.1 GHz base and 3.8 GHz max turbo; no other core-count versions are listed for this product.
What does the 3.8 GHz turbo figure mean when the processor is inside a real machine?
The 3.8 GHz max turbo frequency is the peak single-core speed achievable under thermal and power headroom; sustained all-core speeds will stay closer to the 3.1 GHz base depending on workload and cooling.
What does the PCIe 3.0 interface with 48 lanes cap in practice?
The processor provides 48 PCI Express 3.0 lanes total, setting the maximum combined bandwidth available for GPUs, storage and add-in cards connected to the CPU.
