Workstation Xeon 6-Core Tray Processor
The Intel Xeon W3-2423 is a six-core, twelve-thread server CPU built on Intel 7 lithography for professional workstations. It operates at a 2.1 GHz base clock and reaches 4.2 GHz max turbo frequency. The processor includes 15 MB of Smart Cache and supports DDR5 4800 memory across four channels.
Suits Multi-Threaded Workloads, Not High Core Counts
This CPU fits workstations running multi-threaded applications such as rendering, simulation or code compilation that benefit from twelve threads and large memory capacity. Builders needing higher core density or higher base frequencies for specialised compute clusters should evaluate other processor options.
FCLGA4677 Socket and DDR5 4800 Support
The processor installs exclusively into an FCLGA4677 socket and requires a compatible workstation chipset. It controls DDR5 memory at 4800 MT/s with a maximum addressable capacity of 2 TB across four channels. Verify motherboard qualification before purchase.

Questions about this item
What memory speed does the FCLGA4677 interface cap at with this Xeon W3-2423?
The integrated controller runs DDR5 at 4800 MT/s, so that is the practical ceiling for memory speed on this socket.
What socket and clearance does the W3-2423 need to fit?
It requires an FCLGA4677 socket; the tray package has no bundled cooler, so you must provide a workstation-grade heatsink that clears the 4677 mounting pattern.
How is the W3-2423 installed, and which step is often missed?
Seat the processor in the FCLGA4677 socket, close the load plate, then apply thermal paste and mount the cooler — skipping the paste or using a cooler not rated for the 4677 pattern causes overheating.
