Intel Xeon Gold 6430 32 Cores 64 Threads 3.4GHz E (LGA 4677) BX807136430 Server CPU

High-Density Data Center CPU Platform featuring DDR5 and PCIe 5.0 expansion with the Intel Xeon Gold 6430

The Intel Xeon Gold 6430 (SKU BX807136430) is a 4th Gen Intel Xeon Scalable processor for LGA4677 platforms, engineered for 2-socket general-purpose compute where balanced cores, memory bandwidth, and I/O determine node efficiency. With 32 cores and 64 threads, the Intel Xeon Gold 6430 supports consolidation of mixed enterprise services while maintaining predictable scheduling behavior for virtualized and containerized workloads.

Built on Sapphire Rapids-SP, the Intel Xeon Gold 6430 pairs an 8-channel DDR5 memory architecture with ECC support to sustain high throughput for in-memory databases and analytics, while scaling memory capacity up to 4TB per socket for dense virtualization footprints. PCIe 5.0 with up to 80 lanes per CPU enables high-bandwidth attachment for NVMe storage tiers, accelerators, and modern fabric adapters, aligning the Intel Xeon Gold 6430 with HPC/AI CPU nodes that require low-latency I/O paths and flexible expansion. For dual-socket designs, 3 UPI links support coherent scaling and consistent inter-socket bandwidth for shared-memory workloads.

Why Choose the Intel Xeon Gold 6430?

The Intel Xeon Gold 6430 provides a pragmatic density-to-performance profile for standardizing compute across virtualization hosts, database nodes, and I/O-rich application servers without over-specializing the platform. Its DDR5 and PCIe 5.0 balance helps reduce architectural bottlenecks, while 2-socket capability supports incremental scaling within established rack server designs and service-level requirements.

Intel designs Xeon platforms around long lifecycle stability, validated silicon features, and ecosystem interoperability for modern data center standards. The boxed Intel Xeon Gold 6430 integrates cleanly with C741-based server boards and enterprise RAS expectations; note that no CPU cooler is included, supporting integrator-selected thermal solutions for 270W-class deployments.

Key Applications:

• 2-socket virtualization and VDI hosts
• Database and analytics nodes
• HPC compute and CPU-based AI pipelines
• NVMe-rich software-defined storage
