Intel Xeon Gold 6226 12 Cores 24 Threads 3.7GHz P (LGA 3647) CD8069504283404 Server CPU

Data Centre Server CPU built for scalable virtualisation and analytics with Intel Xeon Gold 6226 (CD8069504283404)

The Intel Xeon Gold 6226 is a 2nd Gen Intel Xeon Scalable (Cascade Lake) processor for the LGA3647 platform, designed for balanced core density and predictable performance in enterprise racks. Intel Xeon Gold 6226 integrates 12 cores and 24 threads with a base frequency of 2.7GHz and turbo up to 3.7GHz, aligning well with mixed consolidation and latency-aware services.

For memory-bound workloads, the Intel Xeon Gold 6226 supports 6-channel DDR4 ECC and scales up to 1TB (platform-dependent), enabling higher VM density and stable database buffer performance while maintaining RAS expectations in production. Expansion is driven by 48 PCIe lanes, supporting high-throughput NICs, NVMe storage, or accelerator attachment; Intel VMD improves NVMe manageability and reduces operational friction during drive service events. Instruction acceleration such as AVX-512 and Intel DL Boost helps optimise analytics and inference pipelines where vector throughput is a limiting factor, while AES-NI and TSX-NI support secure and transactional enterprise middleware paths.

Why Choose the Intel Xeon Gold 6226?

The Intel Xeon Gold 6226 delivers an efficient density-to-performance profile for general-purpose virtualisation, databases, and analytics nodes that must scale without overprovisioning. With up to 4-socket support via 3 UPI links, Intel Xeon Gold 6226 enables consistent platform scaling and predictable NUMA planning for enterprise clusters that require growth headroom and validated reliability.

Intel designs Xeon Scalable processors around data centre longevity, focusing on platform validation, ECC memory integrity, and hardware-assisted virtualisation features such as VT-x, VT-d, and EPT to support secure multi-tenant operation and streamlined infrastructure standardisation.

Key Applications:

• Hypervisors and VM consolidation
• Enterprise databases and middleware
• HPC and technical computing
• Analytics and inference acceleration
• Secure infrastructure services
