Intel Xeon Gold 5220 18 Cores 36 Threads 3.9GHz P (LGA 3647) CD8069504214601 Server CPU

Enterprise 2S/4S Server CPU Platform Core featuring Cascade Lake scalability with the Intel Xeon Gold 5220

The Intel Xeon Gold 5220 is a 2nd Gen Intel Xeon Scalable (Cascade Lake) server processor designed for balanced performance in virtualized infrastructure and general-purpose compute. In LGA3647 platforms, it targets consistent throughput with 18 cores and 36 threads, while maintaining predictable power behavior for dense rack deployments and mixed consolidation workloads.

The Intel Xeon Gold 5220 supports DDR4 memory up to 2667 MT/s with ECC, enabling stable capacity scaling and data integrity for enterprise VMs, databases, and analytics nodes. PCIe 3.0 connectivity with up to 48 lanes provides practical headroom for high-speed NICs, HBAs, and accelerator adjacency, while Intel VMD helps streamline NVMe storage management and serviceability. For performance-sensitive pipelines, AVX-512 and Intel DL Boost accelerate vector math and inference-adjacent routines without changing the server form factor or I/O topology.

Why Choose the Intel Xeon Gold 5220?

The Intel Xeon Gold 5220 offers an effective density-to-performance profile for 2-socket and scale-up 4-socket designs where core count, memory bandwidth, and platform stability must align. With UPI links enabling multi-socket coherency and enterprise instruction set capabilities, the Intel Xeon Gold 5220 fits standardization strategies that prioritize predictable scaling, validated firmware ecosystems, and long lifecycle deployment planning.

Intel engineering emphasizes platform compatibility, ecosystem validation, and security-oriented technologies such as Trusted Execution Technology, VT-x/VT-d virtualization support, and AES-NI. This approach helps the Intel Xeon Gold 5220 integrate cleanly into modern data centre operational models focused on uptime, controlled change management, and repeatable system qualification.

Key Applications:

• Virtualized infrastructure and private cloud
• General-purpose enterprise servers
