Intel Xeon Gold 6246

Data Center CPU for LGA3647 Xeon Scalable Platforms featuring high-frequency compute with the Intel Xeon Gold 6246

The Intel Xeon Gold 6246 (SKU CD8069504282905) is a 2nd Gen Intel Xeon Scalable “Cascade Lake” server CPU designed for LGA3647 systems where per-core speed and predictable latency are critical. The Intel Xeon Gold 6246 fits dense virtualized compute nodes and general-purpose enterprise servers, delivering a balanced core count with strong turbo behavior for mixed workloads.

On C62x platform boards, the Intel Xeon Gold 6246 enables ECC-protected DDR4-2933 memory operation for data integrity and stable performance under sustained load. For I/O planning, PCIe 3.0 connectivity supports common NIC, HBA, and accelerator footprints, while up to 48 PCIe lanes help reduce contention in storage and network-heavy configurations. Multi-socket scaling is supported through 3 UPI links, allowing the Intel Xeon Gold 6246 to be deployed from 1S configurations up to 4S designs, aligning compute density with NUMA-aware application placement and virtualization scheduling.

Why Choose the Intel Xeon Gold 6246?

The Intel Xeon Gold 6246 is selected when an enterprise needs high base clock throughput without sacrificing platform scalability. Its 12 cores and 24 threads provide an efficient density-to-performance ratio for VM consolidation, database services, and latency-sensitive application tiers, while AVX-512 capable platforms help accelerate analytics and vectorized routines where software is optimized.

Intel engineering focuses on validated server platform compatibility, consistent stepping and microcode support, and long lifecycle availability to meet enterprise change-control requirements. The Intel Xeon Gold 6246 integrates cleanly into established LGA3647 infrastructure and standard data center management practices.

Key Applications:

VMware vSphere and Microsoft Hyper-V compute nodes
Dense virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI)
SQL and OLTP database servers
In-memory analytics and AVX-512 optimized workloads
General-purpose 2S/4S enterprise application servers
